CIGARETTE BOX – COMMEMORATING POST WW I SERVICE IN SIBERIA
Following WW I’s end, both Russia and Germany experience particularly chaotic internal situations. In Russia, Bolshevik Red and anti-Bolshevik White forces battled for control in a bloody civil war.

Its top swings up to allow access to the interior where his cigarettes were placed. The handsome little box is in very fine condition.

PATRIOTIC BOX – “Kriegs – Erinnerungen 1914/15″
The German people were extremely patriotic both before and during WW I. It was only toward the end of the war that their patriotism and love for the Kaiser faltered under the war’s constant deprivations. Today we are offering a lovely early-war patriotic box, from when patriotism was running high. Any number of personal treasures could be housed inside. The box measures 1 ½” x 5 ½” x 9 ½,” and is covered in handsome magenta leatherette. A small black and gold-trimmed enamel Iron Cross appears in its upper left corner.
