??? Maybe the next strip will answer the questions from this one. I just looked up some news reports from that month but found nothing that might relate to cigars or boxes. Be interesting to see what commenters add to this strip.
I remember when I was younger you used cigar boxes for everything, even though they might have smelled like cigar. Today’s cigar boxes aren’t quite the same.

I’m sure there’s a point to this. Something that would have made sense in 1965?

The only thing I have quickly is that cigar boxes were common as small keepers of keepsakes.

Whatever Mr. Hart had in mind when he drew this didn’t come across in the finished version. It makes no sense at all as evidenced by all the comments.

I swear I remember a similar exchange ending with the reply that he wanted to come back as an anteatereater.

We took cigar boxes for our pencils and stuff in grade school. I loved the sweet smell.
