Offered here is one of the finest Major Championship player gifts that we've ever encountered. This cigarette case with built-in lighter is truly unique. It was given to players who participated in the 1936 U.S. Open at Baltusrol and presents in exceptional condition for being 80 years old.       

This high quality piece was produced by Saks-Fifth Avenue and comes in its original sleeve and box. The sleek item measures only 1/4" thin, intended to slip in a jacket breast pocket. The Baltusrol clubhouse is displayed impressively on the inside of the case, along with the words "National Open, Baltusrol 1936".
