    Description

    A unique Thai cigarette case , probably made for a Capitol Records employee or representative .
    It weighs 119 grams and measures 4 18" x 3 1/8" .It is in very good condition and has a quality look to it .
    I have never seen anything like it , and have been collecting for decades .It says made in Siam , which was a brief period on the 1940's
    The Thai writing on the back of the case says "Bangkok Record Company". Thai people really loved  American music , and could sing many older songs quite well.
