Cigars for Ed van Thijn

2 juin 2025

Our museum recently received a precious donation from the widow of former mayor Ed van Thijn. This skilled administrator enjoyed smoking a cigar. When the mayor of Jakarta came to visit, he brought a hand-carved teak box containing cigars of all shapes and sizes. Each specimen has a printed label with the name of Ed van Thijn, a name that also adorns the lid of the large cigar box. This special humidor, including its precious contents, can be seen from 2 June to 2 August in the Amsterdam Pipe Museum.
