Man Lighting a Cigar

Man Lighting a Cigar
A smoking photo for the Vintage Photos Theme Park.

I hope that match didn't burn his fingers as he waited for the photographer to take his picture!

Smiley Derleth, Roger Dodger have particularly liked this photo

Reminds me of William Buckley. I wonder if this gentleman abandoned his marriage for his cigar, as Kipling's character in his poem "The Betrothed"--"A woman is only a woman but a good cigar is a smoke." Here's the poem if interested: www.bartleby.com/364/31.html

hahaha. That poem is a riot, Rick.
And I agree - he does have a trace of that self-satisfied, weasly, smug faced man!
I love the quirkiness of many of your photos, Alan!
