Description

Antique Embossed Cigar Postcard Hav-Ana Pun B.B. London Series E2440 Germany. Produced by B.B. London & New York as part of Series No. This charming antique postcard features a clever play on words with the greeting 'Hoping You'll Hav-Ana Stonishing Fine Time,' accompanied by a detailed illustration of a lit Habana Non Plus Ultra cigar and a matchbox. The central image is elegantly framed with an embossed border, showcasing the high-quality lithography typical of early 20th-century German printing. Below the illustration is a poetic sentiment about the choice of cigars and friends, making it a wonderful example of Edwardian-era social humor. Produced by B.B. London & New York as part of Series No. E2440, this postcard was printed in Germany, a mark of superior color and embossing techniques of the era. The back features a divided back design with a stylized 'BB' logo, indicating it was manufactured during the Golden Age of postcards. This piece is an excellent addition for collectors of tobacciana, pun-based ephemera, or those specializing in embossed European-printed postcards.
