Tobacco

I have been given a cigarette case that was inscribed in 1931 with the following "Leobschulzer Motorrad Club. The date of the inscription is 23 4 1931 and the initials of the person D. M. V. (oddly enough). It is purported to have been in the possession of a German Soldier and was recovered in Russia. Looking to discover origin.

I've tried every which way to locate info online: Motorrad Club, Leobschulzer Motorrad Club, Leo. B. Schulzer, etc.
The club itself probably originated in Germany, as Motorrad is a German word meaning motorcycle. I tried to find a list of older russian motorcycles, and came up blank. Does the inscription have a crest or emblem that might help you?

Good luck with your search

I'm looking for a kings-sized cigarette case with some sort of mechanism that ejects a single cigarette with the push of a button. I know they exist, as I've seen them before, but I've been unable to find anyone that sells them online.

Have you tried ebay? If not there,then next time you go to the mall check out the "head shop". Good luck.

I have a silver cigarette case and I just wanted to know how do you put a photo on a cigarette case.

tape it... lol or take it to a photography store and ask them to personalize it with the picture you choose..

I'm looking for a relatively small (say 4 inches by 2 by 1) case to carry cigarillos or cigarettes in my leather jacket. They don't need to hold more than two or three. All the case needs to do is protect its contents from dampness or crushing. Any recommendations?

I used to collect these cases and found that by far the best source for good examples is a car-boot sale or local open market with antiques stalls. Once, I managed to pick up a leather-clad brass 11-cigarette case from the 1940s for £3 in Greenwich!

Buying a cigarette case brand new will be difficult and expensive as smoking is not really the height of high-street fashion at the moment, so grab an antique one (they tend to show a bit of class too).

I hope this helps.

I'm referring to the nice looking silver cases you can buy in cigar shops.
I wear a lot of tight fitting cloths and often I dont like to carry a purse. I figure the case will work well in a pocket and not look to trashy if I do not have a pocket and want to carry my cigarettes in my hand.
I'm 21 and am old enough to make my own decisions, I dont need health advice from others.

yes i have one of those cases and it holds 12 cigarettes and yes they are the king size
