WW2 1945 Xmas South African Cigarette Gift Tin To The Troops

An empty metal cigarette tin, but still with its original cardboard insert and paper mesh cover. Painted silver with "NUWEJAAR. NEW YEAR. 1945" in red and black letters on the lid. Lid also bears an image of two heads and shows a Springbok in a large red "V". Inside is autographed by Isie K Smuts and says "welcome new year with peace"

An original item with its liner contents but no longer any of the cigarettes. Scratched, rusty and with wear, but the hinges tight and it shuts and opens well. The tin measures circa 11 cms by 7 cms.
Scarce to find with any of the internal liners remaining.
