The Matter with Cigarette Cases

The invention of cigarette cases was predictable. Smokers wanted a container that would prevent their prized sticks from crushing. Since its appearance in the Faberge Era, it has morphed into fun cases in the Roaring Twenties, but the bejeweled versions continue to fascinate collectors and smokers alike.

To each generation belonged cigarette cases that reflected the times. The first batch was designed to hold a few cigarettes then later more space was added after some complaints that there was too little space for a pack of cigarettes. These cases had the tinny look and bore the graffiti of the times and most cases had the embossed image of Hollywood icon Marlene Dietrich or the comic character Betty Boop.
