Tahiti is the largest island in the Windward group of French Polynesia. The island is located in the archipelago of the Society Islands in the central Southern Pacific Ocean, and is divided into two parts: the bigger, northwestern part, Tahiti Nui, and the smaller, southeastern part, Tahiti Iti. The island was formed from volcanic activity and is high and mountainous with surrounding coral reefs. The population is 189,517 inhabitants (2017 census), making it the most populous island of French Polynesia and accounting for 68.7% of its total population.

The cigarette box is a wonderful memory. Jeffrey was in "full acquisition" mode with his Polynesia collection in 2004. We were with the Franciscan/GMcB group for the Lincoln gathering that summer. The box showed up on eBay during the trip, and Jeffrey performed an all-out assault and won it...having...well..."overlooked", shall we say, the seller's description. A chip on the lid and a couple of hairlines on the base." Everybody in the group got a pretty good laugh. When it did arrive, the "couple of hairlines on the base" translates roughly to "beat all to Hell"

I'm always happy to accept invites to groups as long as I can see the content. If I see "this group is not available to you", my photos won't be made available to that group. Thanks for your understanding.

Looks nice, but what does it SAY?
