List of and Favorite Cigar Boxes

I don't know if this post subject has been covered before, if so, my apologies (I tried a search on "cigar" and "box" in the forum and got too many threads)

I don't know of any comprehensive or semi-comprehensive listing of baseball related cigar boxes. In my meanderings, I seem to always run across Joe Tinker, Al Simmons and 5 or 6 others, but is there any site or book that covers these in more detail?

Here's my favorite, the 1911 Saskatoon Quakers of the Western Canada League (my hometown, where Gordie Howe later played senior baseball in between NHL seasons)

The Henry Reccius is 1 of a kind... The Champions box is quite rare as well but I have heard of a few floating around!

On a related note, even though this is not a cigar box - still an awesome early depiction of baseball on a tobacco related item!

Hal - GOD NO!!! I wish I owned it... The thread asked for my favorite boxes. Unfortunately, my favorite (Honus Wagner) is unobtainable for my budget!
