My grandmother used to keep these around for cigar smoking grandfather. I can still smell those cigars! Today I have them out just for show, there’s no smoking in my house
This photo was taken in 1957, the little girl is my mother Doris. Sitting behind her is my grandmother Gertrude and to her left are my cousins Beatrice and Betty. I’ve never seen such a pretty picture as this one.
