If anyone on the board won the Yum-Yum cigar box in Lelands, it is, unfortunately, not as advertised.
The auction states the following: "Vintage Yum Yum cigar box measures 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 x 4 1/2" and appears to be from the same era as the famed baseball tobacco cards issued by Rohde & Company." N403s, of course, were issued by
August Beck & Company of Chicago, not Rohde & Company. Also, the cards were issued in chewing tobacco tins, not cigar boxes. In addition, one or the original tins can be seen on my website here:

The tin actually had a label affixed to the outside that read "cards are placed at bottom of box."
