Worker harvesting shade tobacco for the Florida Cigar Company in Quincy, Florida

from Florida Memory

  • Florida Memory said:
    Accompanying note: "The tobacco crop is never in the sun. Cheesecloth shields the growing plant from the direct rays of the sun. The crop is harvested in the shade and carried to the drying barns in covered wagons."

Workers rolling cigars at the Florida Cigar Company in Quincy, Florida

from Florida Memory

  • Florida Memory said:
    Accompanying note: "Handrolled cigars are treated in much the same manner as others, except the wrapper is rolled on, sealed and shaped by hand. Ends are cut by hand and each cigar is handled several times prior to boxing."
  • Swordscookie said:
    I expect that this was a job that required skill and fine action on the part of the rollers? Nice shot.
