A very unusual and I would think very rare piece of social, Dunhill and tobacco history.
6cm x 4.5cm and weighing 35g
In very nice condition the front fla...p still snaps into place well with a click. A few dings to the rear from use over the last century.
Would benefit from a good clean, a very nice rare object for the true collector, a real "find me another" item I would like to think .
Please check out my pictures to judge the condition of this lovely piece for yourselves Thank you
