From Halfwheel:Aristocrat Humidors, one of the world’s premier cabinet humidor builders, has announced it is no longer producing humidors. A message on the company’s website explains that while the company isn’t closing, its humidor production is: We have thoroughly enjoyed creating Aristocrat Humidors for our clients over the last 25 years, ...https://halfwheel.com/aristocrat-humidors-stops-building-humidors/291619That's strange.Edit: They obviously make more money selling the humidification systems. And now they can lay off the highly skilled craftsmen.My best guess is their prices have probably put them mostly out of the market because younger folks these days have little appreciation for Hand Made in USA craftsmanship when they can get Chinese made prices. Bob’s workmanship was second to none.Fewer people are willing/allowed to spend to display their evil cigars. Cheap bastiges who store them in cooleradors don't help.

Rivera became the first player to be unanimously voted into the Hall, appearing on all 425 ballots.No doubter. Best closer ever and you knew you were getting the cutter and still no one could hit it.Jorge Posada made the Moose so good late in his career. They were excellent teammates.
