VINTAGE MILWAUKEE PABST BRASS MATCH STICK HOLDER w/ STRIKER on Bottom This is also from my father-in-laws drawer of misc treasurers. I am not sure if it was my father-in-laws or possibly his fathers. My wife can remember them both using a holder like this when rolling there own cigarette and striking a match to light it up. This was a useful tool when lighting the campfire needed when taking the cattle to the high country in the spring/summer. She is also sure beer must have been involved at some point, especially branding time! Never have seen another one quite like this and my research has not revealed one. Details: Approx 2 5/8" x 1 1/2" and 3/8" wide Brass Flip Top Lid 2 Blue Tip Matches and 1 Red top Stick match inside Striker on Bottom - See Photos Most Likely from the 1940's Front Reads: Circle w/ PABST WILWAUKEE & an inner circle, a B on some leaves w/ trade mark. Back Reads: MILWAUKEE BEER IS FAMOUS - Pabst HAS MADE IT SO There appears to be a very light engraved O.L or D.L. Not sure what that is about. My father-in-laws was a western man with a sincere love of the western lifestyle & all that Montana offered. First class shipping $3.00 World Wide Shipping available. Please inquire for rate.
