Geeks:

I always book match the lid of a Winsor ... it makes them completely unique from all other manufacturers.  And, I got lucky with the Toys for Tots walnut burl (initially I was going to use amboyna but this was too good to pass up). 

Since I always find a face of some kind in the burl, I always name the humidor (Falcon's Wrath, Red Woody, The Dragon, etc.)  I usually name them, but this time the Geeks should do so collectively. So, here  is a fairly high resolution picture of the TFT lid.  (I used Photoshop's brightness and contrast adjustments to help you visualize the swirls of the walnut burl ... but nothing else).  Here  is an unaltered image just to be complete.

To me, the face is obvious, but I'm not going to influence your perceptions.  I suppose that those who participate submit their names then, when complete, we all vote on the one we like the best.

Have fun,

 CT

Yes, it's a pineapple hat.  No, you can't put your cigar out in it.

You should hurry up and acquire the cigar habit. It's one of the major happiness's. And so much more lasting than love, so much less costly in emotional wear and tear.
Aldous Huxley

Maybe it's like becoming one with the cigar. You lose yourself in it; everything fades away: your worries, your problems, your thoughts. They fade into the smoke, and the cigar and you are at peace.

I can see the cat thing but to me it looks like a beast with many eyes and its got a kinda oriental thing to it. Id call it "The Beholder"
I used to sit outside all night and drink bud lite and smoke Marlboros and everyone thought I was a bum. Now I sit outside all night and drink craft beers and smoke cigars and everyone thinks I have class.

I see Liza Minelli being forced to marry that gay man, what's his name.  And then they divorce.  And then she wins a Tony.  That's what I see.

How about we call it what it really is:  The Winsor Advertiser.

You've now connected your commercial business to Toys for Tots on three threads - two started by you with the words Toys for Tots in the title and then links to your site in the thread.

Sell your humidors, but do it without playing off the generosity of the good people on this site.
