    Default Holy Lance labels

    Were the original holy lance maduro labels the same as the regular holy lance labels and they they changed them to the reddish brown label later on? When did they change them to the current label? G1

    The ones I had from 2010 were gold letters on white background. I think that was the OR, but not 100%. For sure though, the reddish labels came after...

    Not sure of the date, but they had been the original bands until Dion switched maduro wrappers to what he currently uses.

    Yeah, the original Maduro release (when they were LE) was the regular band. When Dion did a regular production release he switched from a Corojo Maduro wrapper (I think) to a San Andreas Maduro wrapper and the labels went from the traditional white to the burgundy.

    People cry about how bad tobacco is, but do they realize how bad water is? Water can be chemically synthesized by burning rocket fuel. Water is the primary ingredient in herbicides and pesticides. Water is the leading cause of drowning. 100% of serial killers, rapists, and drug dealers have admitted to drinking water. And probably most alarming...100% of people exposed to water will die! By comparison tobacco is a pussy.

    So if they have the white label with gold lettering, they're the OR? anyone know how long these were out? I saw a few boxes and dummy me, I didn't look at the box dates as I was in a little rush. The open box had the white/gold labels but don't' know what the others were as I didn't' look G1

    They were around from around (just before) IPCPR 2010 to about IPCPR 2011, when the full line maduros came out.
