Abstract: Herein disclosed is a compact, highly attractive combination cigarette extinguisher and ash tray. The device comprises a body portion of generally cylindrical formation adapted to be supported on a table top, desk or the like with its axis vertical. The peripheral wall of the body provides a plurality of vertically-extending recesses each adapted to receive a cigarette butt with the lighted end of the latter downward. A cap fits over the upper portion of the body and is rotatable to align an opening in the cap with a selected one of the vertically-extending recesses to permit deposit of a cigarette butt in such recess. The cap is then rotated to close off the recess and the light on the butt is quickly extinguished. A filter element is disposed between the upper surface of the body and the inner surface of the cap to restrict passage of the odor of the extinguished butt from passing into the room in which the combination cigarette extinguisher and ash tray is disposed.
