"Tailor-made" in relation to cigarettes means cigarettes that have been mass-produced in a factory and usually have a filter tip inserted at the mouth piece. 'Hand-rolled' cigarettes or 'roll-your-own'. were made by the person themselves by rolling thin paper around a pinch of loose cut tobacco. After World War 2 1914- 1918 tailor made cigarettes were mass produced in large factories and were inexpensive and easy to obtain world wide. Residents of City of Moorabbin used a cigarette case like this to carry their tailor made cigarettes in their coat pocketsc1950 A silver plated cigarette case with spring hinge and metal strip inside case that holds cigarettes in place early settlers, market gardeners, silver smiths, jewellers, cigarettes, tailor made cigarettes, craven a cigarettes, phillip morris pty ltd, post world war 2 estates, moorabbin shire, bentleigh, mckinnon, highett, cheltenham, -

Robin and Patricia Boyd, with their youngest daughter Suzy, were based in Cambridge, Massachusetts for the year. Boyd gave some lectures at MIT and he was also invited to give lectures at many other universities, allowing him to travel widely within the USA, especially on the East Coast. This gave him the opportunity to meet architects like Frank Lloyd Wright, Eero Saarinen, Paul Rudolph and many others, and visit the offices of Skidmore, Owings and Merrill, and places like Taliesin and the General Motors Technical Center Detroit.
