  • Original Item: One of a Kind. This was just acquired from a collector at a large military collection. This is a very nice German WWII Cigarette case, made from magnetic steel that looks to be nickel plated. There is a very nice badge or tinnie installed on the top center, which reads:


    1939
     --TAG --

    DER WEHRMACHT
    HIRSCHBERG


    During the NSDAP period, there were many rallies and gatherings meant to increase the sense of national unity, and Tag der Wehrmacht ("Armed Forces Day") was one of these. they were held yearly at various cities throughout Germany. There are two Hirschberg localities in Germany, so we are not sure which exact one this refers to.


    The case itself measures approximately 4" x 3 1/8" x 5/8", and the latch and hinge are fully functional. There are two retaining straps in place, holding the 4 CAMEL brand cigarettes in place, though the cigarettes are almost certainly post war. The interior of the case is marked with a German Waffenampt WaA195 inspection stamp, indicating it was officially inspected for user.


    A wonderful piece of German WWII Militaria!
