Posted By: <b>barrysloate</b><p>It's a trade card set known simply as Capadura Cigars. They are relatively common and not too valuable. I forget if the set is complete at four or six cards. Good point, to previous post. They are two different sets that use identical artwork. Both are common. Because they are trimmed they threw me off.
