Anybody ever heard of "R.J.Morans" pipe tobacco/fine cigars ?

I found this box/key holder at a garage sale...I can't find any info on the web??

It sounds like it was a promotional trinket for a local retailer.

There's a B&M in Chicago that puts its name on pipe cleaner sleeves, cigar cutters, the obligatory match box, ashtrays, and more...

Do you think it has some value as a collectible?

R J Morans is also an anagram for NORM'S JAR.

No..no real value, just esthetics. Fits in nicely with the pipe ambiance...

Thanks for the info again.

Here's the box I was talking about....

That's pretty cool.

Whoa!! Juozapas, when you said

box/key holder

I had no idea you where talking about a cabinet-sized container.

That's verrrrrry cool, and I'll bet a lot of tobacciana collectors would pay a lot for that.

(But keep it for yourself. Hang it on the wall: use it for, what else?, keys, and enjoy it!)
Very cool find...
