This unusual brass cigarette case is thought to have been given to British participants in the 1936 summer olympic games held in Berlin, Germany. A plate riveted to the cover is inscribed as follows:

     Fur verdienstvolle mitarbiet bei den           olypischen spielen 1936

(In appreciation of your services at the 1936 olympic games)        

The cover also features an engraving of AX201, the original Rolls-Royce Silver Ghost. A rare historical piece.   Make offer.
