Vintage art deco automatic cigarette roller & tobacco tin - blank monogram plate

J-5 A handsome mid-century vintage automatic cigarette rolling machine and tobacco storage case, combining practical mechanical design with an elegant Art Deco-inspired appearance. The metal lid features a beautiful engine-turned stepped diamond pattern, surrounding a smooth central cartouche. The center remains completely blank and unengraved, making it particularly attractive for anyone who would like to add a personal monogram, initials, engraving, or other custom decoration. The box is in excellent overall condition for its age, with the original mechanism and rolling components very well preserved and fully functional. The main hinge assembly is straight and secure, allowing the lid to open completely and operate smoothly. It closes firmly with a satisfying click. The internal rolling mechanisms are properly aligned and operate smoothly. The original tan fabric rolling blind/apron is in excellent, pristine condition. It remains securely attached to its tracking bars and is fully intact with no tears or significant damage. The interior tobacco basin is exceptionally clean, showing only very minor factory-finish swirls. The exterior metal retains an attractive smooth satin appearance with a gentle aged patina, along with only minimal pocket scuffs consistent with its age. Please carefully review all photographs, especially the close-up photos, as they form an important part of the description and provide the most accurate representation of the item's actual cosmetic condition, including any small marks or signs of age. Overall, a beautifully preserved vintage automatic Rollbox in excellent condition, with a particularly appealing blank central plate that offers the option for personalization. An excellent piece for collectors of vintage tobacciana, Art Deco objects, or mechanical vintage accessories.
