Mullica, Tom. Tom Mullica?s ?Nicotine Nincompoop? Cigarette Case. A Flamex cigarette case and lighter, the exterior with an Egyptian hieroglyph design, owned and used by Mullica as part of his magic act for over 30 years. According to the accompanying letter of authenticity written and signed by Mullica (2009), he purchased the lighter in Frankfurt, Germany in 1969 and used it nightly at the Tom-Foolery, his magic club in Atlanta, ?primarily to hold the 12 cigarettes for my ?Nicotine Nincompoop Routine' which became my trademark signature piece.? Donated to IBM Ring 324. With wear and modifications from Mullica.
