When we were small, my sister and I would look forward to our dad lighting up one of the teeny tiny fake cigarettes that came with this figurine made by Enesco and it would smoke for hours. It was such fun to see. Our father has long since passed away and I was given the figurine. Now I would like to surprise my sister with it if I could find some of those teeny tiny fake cigarettes for it. I know she would love to have it and see it smoking again. Where oh where can they be? Someone out there might have some with another smoker figurine perhaps. I know they also made a monk and another old man figure which I found at an estate sale a few years ago but there were no tiny cigarettes with them.
Ok for those who want to see their smoking guys actually smoke....you can take tissue paper ...the kind used to purty up gift bags...and cut a small rectangle and roll it very tightly until it makes a little stick...BUT HERE IS THE KEY....AFTER you have it tight ...unroll it and add a piece of unscented dental floss to the center(add it to the first turn) and roll it back up tight....it slows the burn and adds more smoke...the oil from your hands should keep it rolled once done (if not lick your fingers just a little as you roll it up)... cut the stick into 3/4 inch pieces with scissors or wire cutters...and viola you got some smokes to use to show your kids and grandkids ...well that sounded bad but my great grandparents showed me and I was mesmerized...
Hope this is helpful...
I found this on the internet
yes I have 4 of these little men that smoke, and their cigerrettes but they are all different they came in a set of 4
