Dragon Engraved 1948 Cigarette Case Light signs of use andIt turns out that sukas were not the only dragon emblazoned gifts taken home to the US from Japan! This beautiful silver plated piece would have been made in Japan in 1948 and likely sold to a US serviceman stationed there. These are actually pretty hard to find, especially in good condition! Condition Good used condition. These is a little wear but the silver plate is largely very nice. The springloaded lock works perfectly. A really great piece.
