Besides" he went on, ''the Key
West cigar is known all over the
world. Every season we have hun
dreds of tourists visit our factory.
Some buy cigars, some don't"
The largest majority of Tropi-
calls sales are to out of town
smokers.
Bermudez has some regular Gus
toners to whom he ships two or
three boxes of cigars each month.
Then, too, he has string of
other regular customers who order
only when they are ready for more
cigars.
"For example," he said, 81 have
men in Detroit, Omaha, and Pen
nsauken, N. j., to whom / regu-
larly ship two or three boxes a
month. Then there are others to
whom ! ship cigars only when they
write for more. =

cigars.

Bermudez, a veteran cigar max
er, buys all his tobacco from Gu
ba.
'This is the only factory in Key
West that makes clear Havana ci-
gars," he said.
The tobacco is not the only thing
Bermudez buys from outside Key
West.
The cigar boxes, the bands, and
the cellophane wrappers all come
from out Of town.
The Federal tax stamp with
which he seals each box is bought
at the Federal building here. But,
of course, that too is not printed
here.
The boxes are made in Tampa; !;
some Of the bands are made in
Elmira, N. Y, and the cellophane
wrappers come from Perioria, Ill.

gars made in the United States, :"
said Bermudez, "are not made by
