1900s Nickel Silver Pop Up Cigarette Case Extremely Rare

1900s Nickel Silver Pop Up Cigarette Case Extremely RareThis is a very rare nickel silver early 1900's cigarette case in great condition, with only slight age wear. It's an interesting design; when you press lightly on the front of the case the top pops open and dispenses your cigarettes. It has a tray inside that lifts them up as the top opens. This case was from an era that didn't have filtered cigarettes, so please keep that in mind when purchasing this case. It will not fit todays filtered cigarettes.
