Offered here is one of the finest Major Championship player gifts that we've ever encountered.

This cigarette case with built-in lighter is striking in appearance. It was given to players who participated in the 1936 US Open at Baltusrol. 

 

This high quality piece was produced by Saks-Fifth Avenue and comes in its original Saks box. This is also signed by 1936 US Open winner Johnny Farrell. Farrell's signature is faint, but easily readable at the bottom left of the Baltusrol clubhouse image.

 

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 "Open Championship, Baltusrol 1936".
