Description

This is a vintage joke cigarette pack.  Made by J. Chein & Company.  Labeled "Camals", a VERY close approximation of Camel cigarettes.  You use a key to wind up a spring, lay the pack on a tabel, and when you pick it up, it vibrates.

I have found a few completed listings on Ebay.  But sold prices vary.  Curious if this is in a price guide somewhere.
