A highly collectible WWII artifact: An original Lucky Strike "Green" Flat Fifty Cigarette Tin. The green packaging is iconic, as the company famously switched to white in 1942, making this a rare pre-war or early-war production piece. This specific tin was found in Normandy, linking it directly to the European Theater of Operations. While the exterior shows "salty" rust and wear consistent with a battlefield relic, the interior remains surprisingly legible with the classic "It's Toasted" slogan and Indian head logo. Dimensions: 11cm x 14cm.
