Sorry sci I missed your previous post. You're correct. This particular package is from Air Force One / Nixon's second term.

I assume Air Force One is non smoking now.

You would think. A colleague of mine gave it to me after overhearing me speaking favourably of President Nixon. Its value as a collectible is quite diminished since most of the cigarettes are gone and the package was opened in the first place.

But let me be "perfectly clear" when I say I enjoy showing it off.

I have several decks of playing cards, my father gave us from his time he spent flying on air force one.

Well I'm in need of a juicy clue.
My best guess is it's a handheld camera featured in some of the special effects shooting Kubrick did himself in "A Clockwork Orange."

A camera identical to this one was used by one of the students in the movie "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets".

The Argus C3 made by Argus of Ann Arbor Michigan from 1939 to 1966. Photographers called it "The Brick."

If correct please open the challenge. I'll be back in 5 hours.
