Description: Gene Mitchell Men's Hair Design 9171 Wilshire Beverly Hills Matchbook LOT of 3 California Own a Rare Piece of Smoking / Advertising History / Matchbook Art Remember this being your spot and the good times you had? Did you have two or "three on a match"???? (hope not) or how about the days when you could just light up and smoke inside your "spot" at the table with a drink, or even light up a Stogie, while dining out at Morton's? Chasen's in L.A.? Gibson's? or maybe sit and have coffee for 3 hours at the Gold Coin (Devon and Western Av), Hollywood Grill (North and Ashland Ave), Lou Mitchell's (Wabash Blvd) or Manny's (Roosevelt Rd). I went to breakfast at the Golden Nugget on Broadway near Bryn Mawr in Edgewater and read the sports section and smoked a Voiceroy Cigarette, sitting at the counter for 2 hours, filling up an ashtray full of butts. Then you had to stand 15 feet from the door! If you lived in an area similar to Chicago, Illinois, 60601, it could be MINUS -20 degrees with snow blowing sideways and then you had to stand in a "gangway" or "vestibule" to "cup your hands to light up" defending against "the Hawk" This is a perfect addition to your Humidor? Stash-box? Man-Cave? Purse? Fanny Pack? Bike Bag? Glove Compartment? Tool Box? Gym/Work Locker, Light the Water Heater/Furnace......Fun Fact: Back in the day, a match was used as a roach clip??? It's convenient to keep a book of matches in your jacket pocket or backpack, they may save your life in an emergency. Light- weight as well. I recommend keeping a few packs in your vehicle or trunk. Three on a match (also known as third on a match or unlucky third light) is a purported superstition among soldiers during the Crimean War to World War II. ... Since then it has been considered bad luck for three people to share a light from the same match. it is not a stock image. It is the actual item. **Regarding the recent high cost for shipping and handling. **The average cost from the USPS for matchbook in a small 7x4 ,1.00 oz, 1st Class with tracking, is $3.67 to $4.06** USPS just raised rates and established 8 separate zones as well :( Expect Great Service.
