This cigarette case commemorates the achievements and comradery of Sir Keith Smith and his crew.

It belonged to Sir Keith Smith and was made in Birmingham in 1911 by silversmith William Hair Hassler. The engraved signatures on the inside cover belong to members of the crew that completed the first flight from Great Britain to Australia: Keith Smith, Ross Smith, James Bennett, Wally Shiers, and Frank Hurley, who joined the crew later in the journey.

It is now part of the Historical Relics Collection.
