Vintage 1940s Lucky Strikes Tin with Custom Copper Cover antique goegraphy textbook 3 3/4" long x 2Another wonderful box! This is an old Lucky Strikes cigarettes tin, circa 1940s, with a beautiful custom made copper cover featuring a leaf and stem design in relief. I found one other Lucky Strikes box to which a copper cover had been added not nearly as fine as this one, but which suggests it is a thing that people did. I love that the sides of the box are left exposed, reading Lucky Strikes on the long side, and "It's Toasted" on the short sides.
