1905 Boston Beaneaters cigarette case
Posting this as a courtesy since it was misidentified on ebay and it's been sitting there with no bids. Figure it may be of interest to someone...

Im not saying this is one of them, but theres a lot of older items out there with fake newer inscriptions. As the motto of Net54 goes.....CAVEAT EMPTOR!

All of his listing are fake crap. As the other comment mentioned, this has been discussed here before. This case was probably owned by someone with the initials 'EB' which appear to be period to the item. If this was legitimate I am sure the person embossing it would have done it so that the wording did not fall off the bottom of the item. The lister, probably also the maker, is so unimaginative that he is using the same font style on several of the items.

Yep, it's fake. Or at least the inscription is.
The makerspace has a laser cutter/engraver. Making this would be easy. |
