I don't want to waste people's time with frivolous posts, but I recall a forumite recently mentioned exclusively collecting von Richthofen memorabilia....

Item #503202345 at ebay.com should interest you.

I too so dislike frivolous postings. What do you suppose this case will fetch at the auction? It is surprising to learn that the Baron would take such risks with his health. Are you certain this case was his? Might it not have belonged to one of his concubines?

Ah! But, gentlemen, frivolity is next to godliness.
What brand of smokes did the Baron favor?

LOL

Perhaps Roy Brown smoked the Chance brand, or, alternately, No Chance.
