Posted By: <b>Randall Adams</b><p>I just picked up this "Detroit Club" cigar box, anybody know if this is anyway related to the Detroit Tigers. I noticed that the D in Detroit is same gothic style as the Tigers logo.<br /><br /><p><br /><img BORDER="5" src=http://www.cincitec.com/images/ebay/press/tigers-2.JPG><br /><br /><img BORDER="5" src=http://www.cincitec.com/images/ebay/press/tigers-1.JPG><br /><br /><img BORDER="5" src=http://www.cincitec.com/images/ebay/press/tigers-3.JPG><br /><br /><img BORDER="5" src=http://www.cincitec.com/images/ebay/press/tigers-4.JPG><br /><br /><img BORDER="5" src=http://www.cincitec.com/images/ebay/press/tigers-5.JPG><br />&lt;/p&gt;

Posted By: <b>Anonymous</b><p>That's pretty damn boring, but thanks for the info. Actually, after reading the "tradition" section it's kind of interesting.
