A unique, historical functional item of extraordinary collectible value. The cigarette case is made of alpaca (an alloy of base metals, often used in haberdashery) and is decorated with a unique brass badge engraved with a map of Poland. This particular motif directly refers to one of the most important post-war exhibitions – the Exhibition of the Recovered Territories, held in Wrocław in 1948. The map badge is not only a decoration but, above all, a powerful historical and propaganda symbol of that period. It commemorates the incorporation of the western and northern territories into Poland after World War II. Thus, the cigarette case served as both an elegant accessory and a personal, daily patriotic declaration. The item is ideal for collectors focusing on:

• Relics of post-war Polish history, especially the period of reconstruction and propaganda.
• Varsaviana and memorabilia related to Wrocław.
• Tobacco accessories (smoking paraphernalia) with unusual, historical decoration.
• Items from exhibitions and fairs of the PRL era.

The cigarette case, thanks to its clear symbolism and specific historical context, is much more than a functional item – it is a material trace of Poland's post-war history, perfect for a collection or as an original gift for a history enthusiast.
