Vintage 1970 match box from Austria. This is an advertising box for the Zillertalbahn railroad. The Zillertalbahn is a tourist destination as it still runs a couple of steam engines and has a small track. 2" 5 15/16" In 1965 this was the first train to use Zugfunk or train control radio. The train has 32 km of track. This box has 4 of the long matches still inside and also shows the bus that was also started in 1965. Box is 4 3/4" long and still in good shape.
Make sure to check back often as I list new items.
