Ask a question
Lovely, very well made little silvertone metal case engraved with the logo for British Airways (quite possibly still known as BOAC when this was made) and the slogan "To Fly To Serve". Slogan and logo have been revived in recent years, but this was the one they used before they started putting Union Jacks on everything.
We THINK this is for cigarette papers, since the size and general shape would suggest cigarettes, but it's very thin, and it has a little lip inside. Card cases often look like this, but those would be very big cards. 3 3/4" x 2 3/4".
Completely unmarked. Metal is nonmagnetic, and could be silver, or a low content silver alloy, but we would lean away from sterling, and it may have no silver content or be quality plate. Excellent vintage condition, was given a light polish when it came in, but could use a little more. DUTV
