gomorgan Posted March 24, 2016 Share #3 Posted March 24, 2016 I'm guessing for cigarettes, cap boxes (of wood) I remember had felt to cushion and a hinged flip top lid. I think the type we carried in 60's had been around for a long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Keith Posted March 25, 2016 Share #4 Posted March 25, 2016 Nice cigarette case. Very similar to many I've seen and some I own. A cigarette is larger in diameter than a blasting cap, and I think shorter (even non-filter) I think. BKW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brig Posted March 25, 2016 Share #6 Posted March 25, 2016 I'm going with blasting cap case, maybe repurposed. Just did a demo range this past Monday, we had a similar case but in plastic, two rows of holes. Felt can be removed, there was no lining in the case we used. Often times cardboard tube is the only protection they get individually...of course the crates are very well padded. What are the measurements? We have a newer member who is EOD...maybe he can shed some light on this. I can't count on one hand how many times I've done actual demo. Not something we get to do as often as we all would like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BagmanL6 Posted March 25, 2016 Author Share #7 Posted March 25, 2016 It measure approximately 4 3/4" by 3 1/4". What is interesting is it has absolutely no tobacco smell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Longbranch Posted March 29, 2016 Share #8 Posted March 29, 2016 Looks to me like a typical 1940s style cigarette case. A google search for WW2 wood cigarette case will pull up similar examples. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
