Cigar City Magazine will be printed on a high premium
70# coated paper in full color. Our advertising will
be that of national magazine type quality. Each issue will
be packed with wonderful, old photos of Tampa's past
and interesting stories. We feel our magazine will attract
residents who want to know more about the rich history
of their city as well as new residents. We are confident
visitors and tourists to the area will find our magazine
not only informative, but attractive and will take Cigar
City Magazine home with them as a souvenir of their visit
to Tampa.
