Army Truck Lighter, Cigarette case & ashtray by Walter Baier Company.

Beautiful large sized aluminum lighter by Baier in the shape of a jeep with a trailer . These wonderful and novel pieces were made very soon after the end of the world war II in Germany. This type of product was built from leftover pieces of munitions and military wares by, predominantly by soldiers recently back from the front lines, now looking to take on a new form of employment. They are essentially what is known as "Trench Art", except, rather than being made by service men and women whilst off the front lines, these were made at the Walter Baier Company factory.

It is fueled with lighter fluid, and are filled via the underneath. This larger version, also have the original ashtray 'trailer', and has a cigarette compartment hidden in the roof of the Jeep. To activate the lighter automation, you just have to move any door knob downwards.
