This is a very rare example of a German WWII Cigar box, which originally housed 50 cigars for the personal use of Reichsmarschall Hermann Göring.

This box for cigars bears the gold embossed personal coat of arms of the Göring family. showing an armored fist grasping a steel ring. On the inside lid, this embossed crest is repeated, and under this is:

Sonderanfertigung
für
Reichsmarschall Hermann Göring
AUS DEN GILDEMANN A.G.CIGARRENFABRIKEN BERLIN-HAMBURG

This gives the maker of the the cigars on the bottom line, and indicates that they were custom made for the Reichsmarschall himself.

A very rare item indeed.
