I cant imagine that being cut up
Im glad it was saved !!, well done Ade.
Here is a new addition to my Polish collection bought this morning locally.
This cigarette case which was owned by a Polish Veteran of the Italian campaign who lived in the UK. Sadly, he had passed away and his widow who was in a nursing home had to sell his British and Polish medals. This item got forgotten about when the coin medal/dealer sold the medals.
The case is made of multiple peices of different coloured plastic. Remember at the time, plastic was very fashionable and not considered cheap or rubbish like today. It was most likely made as a commercial item for sale in Italy. Size is 10cm x 7.5cm. Cigarettes were much smaller than today of course.
It was most likely made in Italy circa 1944/45. It features the Vets initials of "JC" and "Italy". The top shows a Polish eagle, under this can be seen various unit insignia, left to right:
Polish 2nd Corps, British 8th Army, 3rd Carpathian Rifle Division. Beneath these are 5th Kresowa Infantry Division and the 2nd Warsaw Armoured Division.
Cheers, Ade.
Beutiful ill post my collection when my camera gets fixed
