Located in Land O' Lakes, FL, USA, just about a mile from our home. This tobacco shop is one mr. pazooter used to frequent. But now he has been a non-smoker for 6 years! Yahoo! Anyway, we decided to take a chance that they might have added a Cigar Store Indian inside. And, yes indeed! Here is a very handsome fella!

I only know of one true tobacconist in Liverpool, and that is Turmeaus Tobacconist, 16 Water St, Liverpool, Merseyside L2 8TD. A check of the logs revealed that mongoose39uk has already logged the indian chief outside this shop on 23rd August this year.
However, as I walked passed this lunchtime, I saw there were more smaller indians inside the entrance, and around the shop - in fact a whole tribe of them!
I went in and asked the owner is I could photo a couple and he obliged, he even pointed out several others around the shop. He even has a british version - a carved bulldog holding cigars!
Photos are a bit dark as its indoors and the flash has paid more attention to the GPS than the statues

This one is in the same building as the5Bucks log, but a different fellow about 50 feet away. The are many of these in this car dealership which begs the question; which do they sell more of: cars or Cigar Store Indians? The first picture I snapped was by far the best and I plan on actually finding out the going price. Happy trails.

Found not one but two Indians together at a trading post in Cortez, CO.
 
Found this one right on the Las Vegas Blvd on a return trip to our hotel at The Monte Carlo..

Visiting Las Vegas with a group of girl friends, we had a blast. We had spent the night at Freemont Street watching the shows down there. We came back to see the Bellagio fountain show and we were just strolling when I saw this one.

SPAZ and Lady D were with me and I grabbed my GPS and said I gotta get it, hang on. Lady D was so funny on this one. Earlier in the day she kept asking is this a cache etc etc and she saw a large Indian Statue and said are Indian Statues caches and I replied no I don't think they are. So when I saw this one and got so excited she said, " I thought you told me Indians were not caches ",she was very quick on the draw. We got a laugh on that one. I proceeded to explain it had to be a Cigar Store and she settled down haaaaaaaaaaaa

Thanks for keeping your eyes open for caches though Lady D!!!

Delighted with the find!
Thanks from Newfoundland, Canada! Pooh Bear

Found this nice wooden cigar store indian in Jerseyville Illinois. Bought a few cigars from him too....

I came across two cigar store indians outside of a cigar store in Georgetown, on Grand Cayman Island. When I got home, I discovered Phat.bak logged the one on the left on December 9, 2004. I'll claim the one on the right since it hasn't been logged yet!

These are two colorful, traditional wooden carvings, and unlike a lot of "wooden idians" these days, they are actually holding wooden cigars. A dying piece of history and artform...
 
We found 4 of these Indians close together. They seem to be quite popular on this tourist street.
 
12-Nov-05
After a full day of caching in Sylva, NC, I found this handsome fellow just standing around puffing away on his pipe. Since it was getting a bit chilly outside, he was inside the restaurant (Nick & Nates) where we ended up our day with a hearty dinner. I invited him to join us but he “wooden†consider it. He said something about preferring to simply stand around and puff on his pipe. However, he did permit me to have my picture taken with him.

This is Sievert's Tobacco Limited on Barrington Street, Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada. The store owner told me the large indian was hand carved in the Philippines and cost him about $1,500. He had to replace it as a woman insisted she buy his last one to decorate her bedroom!

Then there was the story about the cops who wanted to borrow the indian to put in their cop friends' house to scare the crap out of him when he came home from an evening shift...there are no bullet holes in this one.
 
This cigar store indian stands guard in front of a Fortino's grocery store smoke shop in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada.

Had been wanting to find a cigar indian for months. Driving home last night, Jerry looked over and saw this Indian in front of the Rocky Mt.

This cigar store indian graces the storefront of La Salle Cigars in Montclaire, CA. A plaque at his feet reads:

"Cigar Indian. Hand sculptured one-of-a-kind original."

Been on the lookout for one of these forever - and found a few "cheap imitations" before finding the real thing. Thanks!

The Arcade between Fourth and Fifth Avenues parallel to Union Street remains as a unique and busy retail feature in downtown Nashville more than a century after its May 20, 1903, grand opening.

Shoppers and visitors to its post office can look up past its upper gallery toward the sunlight streaming through its gabled glass roof and imagine being in Europe. It originally housed close to 50 shops and offices and was inspired by similar structures in Italy, where Daniel Buntin had visited in 1901.

I noticed this Cigar Store Indian had to get a second job at a body shop. Located in Stillwater,OK on highway 51/6th St. He is in need of some sealant very badly. TFTC

My wife and I have been caching since 2002 but lately her interest has been perked by the waning to waymarking locationless caches. We had had lunch while doing some extensive cache maintanance hiking. The place was Bear Creek for smoked beef and pork! While there Mr. LLG kept commenting on the taxidermist work while tasting some of the best pit BBQ in the state of Maryland bar none! He also briefly glanced at a Cigar Store Indian he had noticed a few times before.

After lunch this LLG group headed on to continue extensive cache maintanence of 4 archives and 4 hides.

In route to the first after lunch stop Mrs. LLG started explaining about locationless caches ending and going to waymarking. She happened to have a bunch on her PDA and was telling Mr. LLG as he stopped for a certain Barber Pole one in Great Mills. On the way to the great Crab Pot replacement of caches she mentioned, among many, one about siting a Cigar Store Indian.
WOW! PRESTO! WHAM! ZAM! BAM! Bulb is illuminated at full wattage!!

Mr. LLG explains we have to go back were we ate lunch at Bear Creek BBQ in Callaway St. Marys County Maryland and check out the Cigar Store Indian in the Dining room area of the restaurant!

Mrs. LLG was almost convinced it was worth the try! It was because here stood a bonafide Cigar Store Indian resplendent while holding his stoagies in his left arm!

I saw this Indian while driving on Ventura Blvd (just W of Zelzah) in Tarzana Calif (part of the City of Los Angeles). I parked around the corner and went to look at it but the people inside made it obvious that they didn't like my camera. So I had to leave and take side shots, which still show the cigars held in the Indian's left hand.

Found this Indian located in Fink, Texas (Grayson County). He is out front of the Shawnee Liquor store. It's a good thing he's out in the middle of nowhere. The first time I took his picture, the close-up with the GPSr did not come out and I did not notice it until I was getting ready to claim my find. However, no one else noticed him in the meantime and I got back out to his location to take another picture of him with the GPSr today as the sun was setting.
