    I've had this for a while. I think I paid $10 for it at a garage sale back in the 1980s. I didn't know what it was at the time, but after looking at it, I suppose it is a holder for a lighted cigarette. The smoke would come out of the tugboat stack. Haha. No marks I can discern.

    I don't think they're the same era. The metal one being earlier.

    Yeah, seems like it would be a real pain to clean out the ashes

    & any ash build up inside...would extinguish a smoke just laying on the rest..

    Fun gimmick gifts don't have to be practical. People got sold on the "look smoke comes out the top!" and bought it as a gift to others, no doubt.
