<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Debora, post: 444865, member: 1476&quot;]I did some quick internet research for you.&nbsp; Good guess that yours was a cigar box.&nbsp; &quot;Claro&quot; means light in Spanish and is a type of tobacco.&nbsp; Parforce is the brand and it was manufactured by Elbaco.&nbsp; I assume that&#039;s a German company because of the use of &quot;DR PATENT&quot; on the lid which stands for &quot;Deutsches Reichspatent&quot; or &quot;German Patent.&quot;&nbsp; According to the internet, DRP was used from 1877 until 1945.&nbsp; Given that, I would think your box dates to sometime between World War I and World War II.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Sure others more knowledgable about the tobacciana category will have more to add.&nbsp; In the meantime, here&#039;s another example of Parforce packaging; note that it also uses a hunting theme as &quot;par force&quot; is a hunting term.</p><p><br /></p><p>Debora</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]156321[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
