<p>[QUOTE="evelyb30, post: 332809, member: 36"]I'd say cigarette box too, but my first thought when I saw this was Tzedaka box, or however one transliterates it. Charity boxes for coins are made in this shape to this day, and in others too. One deposits the coins all year, from pocket change or whatever, and donates the contents to charity some time around the New Year in September. (just in case you ever find one of them instead.) This box looks like it was made for unfiltered ciggies.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
