That's a new one to me. I've never seen a box specifically marked Quadron, just the paperwork.

This is the Quadron box that is lined with cedar, it came with paper instructions suggesting that the box double as a perfect humidor for tobacco-that's why it's so tall.
I guess tobacco tie-ins were a thing back in the day. Hamilton suggested using their pocket watch boxes as cigarette cases...
