If you were a soldier in Paris and you were going to buy a souvenir ashtray

the tint of the lenses and the shade of the frames are only slightly different from original examples

This is one to the items I bought as a sample years ago and have decided I will probably never get around to reproducing

Small Aluminum Snuff Tin carcano If you were a soldierThis appears to be a full period snuff tin. It is stuck closed but there is something inside. It should open by twisting the top until the holes on the side would line up which would allow the contents to come out. The tin has a few dents, as it is only made of thin aluminum. The top states that it is a modern refreshing, stimulating tobacco. It measures just under 2" in diameter.
