Connie 73

So with all of the talk of Connies on the other thread it got me digging into the coolidors and low and behold, I found an almost full bundle of 73's down at the bottom. These are probably 15 years old at least. The plastic around the bundle? Brown. The cello on the cigars? Deep brown.
The roll? Firm.
The smoke? Outstanding.
I can't recall what these were the seconds for but WOW it was good.

One of the legends along with the 9, 84 & the 111x series. The last were a limited run for around a year or so I think.
