Black papier mache cigar case with rounded ends, 3” x 5.5”. The sides and ends are thin black leather gussets, permitting the case to collapse when empty. The center area of the front surface is filled with a colorful painting of a man in breeches holding a musket, set in a hilly wilderness by a river. The reverse is filled with a sort of gilt marbelized design. Within the case is the inner case with one straight open end, made of heavy, glossy black paper with embossed scroll design. Its rounded end retains the remains of a narrow pull strip.Collection
