1940’s EMIL WOLSDORFF HAMBURG HAVANA BLEND SINGLES
$50.00It was “the great love of cigars” that prompted the Hamburg merchant Emil Karl Ferdinand Wolsdorff to open his first shop on May 7, 1907 on Georgsplatz in Hamburg. He wanted to operate a widespread trade in cigars and therefore planned two things: Firstly, the development of a WOLSDORFF own brand range with exclusive varieties, made by quality manufacturers in Westphalia and Baden-Württemberg. Second, the establishment of an extensive branch network in all major cities in Germany in order to achieve a nationwide distribution of its brands. Both were successfully created and expanded. Soon, in addition to WOLSDORFF cigars, the diverse range also included renowned imports, tobacco, cigarettes, pipes and accessories. WOLSDORFF quickly made a name for itself among smokers with a top-class selection and expert advice at the highest level. Selling high-quality tobacco products in an advisory capacity instead of distributing goods, that was and is the motto at WOLSDORFF: "If the customer leaves the shop satisfied, happy and feeling happy, then the specialist shop has properly fulfilled its service task," so it put it Werner Wolsdorff. There are now around 170 WOLSDORFF branches all over Germany. This box was purchased from a collector in Hamburg and it was sealed until opened for inspection in 2020.

FROM MYSTIC STAMP COMPANY: Cigar Revenue Tax Stamps
The first Cigar Revenue stamps were issued in 1846, with the tax rate based on the value of the cigars. A short time later, a flat tax per thousand cigars was introduced. In 1917, cigars were once again taxed according to their value. The cigars were designated Class “A” through “E,” with “E” being the most expensive. Class “F” and “G” were later added to meet the increasing cost of cigars. In 1932, a numbering system began for the Cigar Revenue Stamps, with the first series designated “102” and valid for one year before it was replaced with “Series 103.” The practice continued in subsequent years. As a consequence, “Series 123” Cigar Revenue tax stamps were issued in 1953, and so on. Cigar Revenue tax stamps were discontinued in 1959.
