All the auction needs is two people bidding against each other, one being American, and the price could easily soar. It makes me wonder how many other half-finished cigars there are that people claimed with a view to selling on. James, many thanks, that’s a really interesting link.

Perhaps she would like to visit my blog too. Jeremy, I’m delighted you have a “dear wife”, and I hope you truly appreciate her. Perhaps she would like to visit my blog too.

It doesn't sound as if Churchill's cigars expired as they were prematurely ended. And yes, you are right, I am a non-smoker (I just smoulder instead!). Where did you acquire your Churchills from?

Churchill smoked Romeo y Julieta Churchills, which are 7 inches long - so even if he smoked only half a cigar, that still represents quite a few puffs. I've a couple of Churchills in my humidor right now, if you'd like to come round for a spot of in-depth research...

Churchill must have got through quite a few in a day if he had a few puffs and then stubbed it out. I didn't realise there was one in the Cabinet War Rooms too, it is obviously quite a colectable item for some. Jeremy.

You can see another example of a half-smoked Churchill stogie on display in the Cabinet War Rooms.
