<B><I>Lime Kiln Club</B></I></B></I> <B>1883 Black Americana Cigar Label by Mensing & Stecher of Rochester, New York.</B></I> A lithographed 8" x 6" inner label with a caricature image of a very boisterous group of blacks at a lodge meeting. The moderator is trying to get order while some of the members talk and fight amongst themselves with one even holding a pistol. There is a trademark on the bottom of a whiskey barrel in the picture that may possibly be for the Ithaca Cigar Manufacturing Co. for whom the label was made. Interestingly, this label was based on a racial parody book by "M. Quad" (actually newspaper columnist and satirist Charles Bertrand Lewis) titled <I>Brother Gardner's Lime-Kiln Club.</B></I> A popular and scarce label with appeal to collectors of black memorabilia. Near mint. This label is listed as one of the "InStone 100" blue chip cigar labels.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Small Flat (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
