125: Only One Large Scale Cigar Manufacturer Remains in Tampa
I know this isn't directly CCB related, but it does have a lot of info on Tampa's past and the sadly shrinking Cigar industry that gave birth to Tampa as a modern city:
"Social organizations including Centro Asturiano and the Italian Club provided members with lifelong medical benefits, serving as the nation's first managed health-care systems. Residents ate Cuban sandwiches and drank cafe con leche at The Columbia, and watched the Tampa Smokers play baseball."


Thanks for providing such useful information. I really appreciate your professional approach.good
