Why would a 56 year old half-smoked
cigar be of any value to anybody? Because it was once smoked by Winston Churchill of course. The former Prime
Minster of the United Kingdom was about to give a speech in a ballroom where he was asked to extinguish his half burnt
cigar. Churchill snubbed it on the ground and handed it to the constable standing next to him. This once souvenir to
the constable is now being sold by his relatives. The half ashed cigar will be going up for sale in April, but
the amount is unknown as this is such an unusual auction.Half Smoked Cigar for Auction
