    Actually, depending on how big these pieces are, it's probably not a bad price at all. Shit, just getting any old picture framed at, say Michaels will set you back an arm and a leg.

    A year back I took two of my wife's cross stitch pictures in to Michael's to be framed (She likes to say, "Michael is her boyfriend"......LOL......and whenever I'm forced to go with her, I sit in the car and read cause I know she's gonna be there a while............but I digress...) I ended up paying $450.00 for both with custom frames etc. I got lucky though, I just happened to walk in and drop them off on a half price framing day. Hey, what the heck do I know about framing pictures right......that was the first time ever for me.

    Apparently they do that reguarly (cut the price) so I lucked out. Next time I'll plan it on purpose and pick premade frames instead of custom frames.

    So there it is folks, if you have some framing you need done, watch for Michael's half price framing and then take your stuff in!

    Default Cigar Art Club

    Hello All.
    Greetings from City City of Tampa and the Cigar Capital of the World - Ybor City.

    All our Cigar Art is original Art by our award winning Photgrapher here in Tampa. Each piece is custom matted and framed at our award winning Art Gallery, Photo Studio and Frame Shop.
    The matting will not fade and the glass is conservation-UV blocking which prevents the Art from ever fading.
    We only use the highest quality materials which will protect and perserve forever.
    In a "nut shell" this is not cookie cutter..but original custom framed Cigar Art by Professionals.

    Cigarsarge is correct..the prices are very competitive for this size Art as the pieces are large to very large. The dimensions are on the web-site -please take note.
    If you choose, you can purchase the Art unframed and try framing it on your own...we don't recommend.
    Thanks for allowing us to say hello...
    Last night I enjoyed a fine Monte Cristo but don't tell my friend Arturo Fuente' Sr...he was in a car accident last week and is recovering but doing well.

    CigarBrad at Cigarartclub.com.....long ashes!

    $175.00

    We have been to many "smokers" and smoking events and our prices have been validated.

    like enjoying fine cigars and fine wine...it's not for everyone.

    When I was in middle school I had a sweet poster of a chick in a red and white striped bikini laying on a yellow ferrari. I was positive that it was fine art, and I 'enjoyed it' like fine wine...



    then I grew up.
