This is my Dad's cigar box he received from his parents many years ago. He is wondering if it is worth anything. I'm not sure how good the pictures are. There is a mirrored finish on the lid and outside sides of the box with a picture of 2 dogs on it. It is from the Weehawkin Cigar Co. in NJ. I'd appreciate any feedback so I can pass it on to my dad. Thanks!

Hi, I think that those are two Scottie Dogs, but I can't enlarge any of the photos. If you could get better photos, that would be great!
I was able to upload larger pictures. There is also a mirror on the inside lid.
Can't see the pictures here either. Do a search but use the term humidor along with the mfg. name rather than cigar box. There are hundreds of them listed for sale at any given time.
Not sure why u cannot see the pictures? I can. Thanks for the information. I will try and look it up.
You could also try searching for the history of the company and review that for leads.
Hi, thanks for the great new photos! What a beautiful box! I am very ignorant of tobacco items. (I don't smoke.) But I love Scotties, and I checked my Scottie collectibles book. No hits there. Looked on ebay, and no hits. Hope one of the tobacco people can ID it for you. Regards, miKKo
