Cigar Bum Pipe Tobacco Give-a-Way: Week 1

[Tobias Lutz]

As mentioned here (http://www.cigarbum.com/forum/showthread.php?3579-Upcoming-Contests-for-the-Pipers), I’ve been entrusted with a bountiful collection of tins, ranging from a few to 7 years old. My task is to give them away :) I will be putting on three contests that will each run Fri-Fri. This is the first. Read the rules, have fun, and if you see Al (aka Bull) around the forum, make sure to say “Thank you” for his generous donation to the pipe side of Cigar Bum!

1. Contest begins now and end Friday, June 12th @ 2359 EST.
2. You may enter once per day, with midnight being the reset time. This means you can, in theory, enter each contest 8 times.
3. The winner will be selected from all qualifying posts, using a random number generator.
4. To qualify, your post must be made during the appropriate time frame, and include the requested content for the specific contest. All other posts will be disregarded.

This week’s qualifying content is:
A picture of a print ad for either pipe tobacco, or a pipe. Vintage, current, whatever you can find. Google images are completely acceptable. Here are some examples:

Congrats Christopher & thank you to the rest for the contest!

[cpmcdill]

The contest prize arrived in my mail today, and I was blown away! :D :D :D

7 tins of top shelf pipe blends, with most or all being well-aged. VA Woods is from '08, Sasieni, Escudo and 965 are from '10, Frog Morton is from '11. The Solani is undated, but the tin looks like it has been around a while. No date info on the EMP.
I have to say, all of these tobacco are right up my alley. I am tempted to let them all keep aging, but I know I'll inevitably pop open at least one of them tonight. Probably either the Solani or the Frog Morton Across the Pond.

Yet again, big thanks to Tobias Lutz and Bull for the contest. It was fun to play, and very fun to win :D
