This is a brass-toned cigarette case.
The obverse features an Iron Cross and “Verdun 1916.” The overall exterior is dimpled. The engraving is clearly homemade. The case’s opposite side has the owner’s name, Walter Wahl, who served at Verdun in 1916. The case’s closing device does not operate properly.

BOX OF MATCHES – VÖLKERSCHLACHTDENKMAL
The Völkerschlachtdenkmal is (and has been) one of the most important war memorials in Germany. It is located in Leipzig, which is one of the most important cities in Saxony, along with Dresden (the capital city). Leipzig was deep in East German territory until the early 1990’s, when East and West Germany were reunified. I have seen this memorial in Leipzig, and I can tell you that it is truly beautiful. It has a reflecting pool leading up to it, similar to the reflecting pool for Washington’s Monument in the US capital. The Völkerschlachtdenkmal was dedicated in 1913 to commemorate Germany’s participation 100 years previously in the Napoleonic Wars.

This is a classic, trench art match safe. The match safe was created primarily from a prewar Prussian enlisted man’s belt buckle. The belt buckle center does not have any dents, which makes it an excellent example. It has a period matchbox in place. Even a striking surface has been added.
It is a winsome little reminder of a bygone era.
