This could be a one of a kind item as I was unable to find anything like it anywhere. This has got to be one of the most amazing Boeing Aviation ashtrays ever created. The plane image has somehow been put on the enameled surface of the center of the tray. It looks to me like the bronze or brass part of the ashtray has an older style to it but they definitely go together 100%. i took the following info from online- \"TheBoeing 2707was the first Americansupersonic transport(SST) project. After winning a competition for a government-funded contract to build an American SST,Boeingbegan development at its facilities inSeattle,Washington. The design emerged as a large aircraft with seating for 250 to 300 passengers and cruise speeds of approximatelyMach3. It was intended to be much larger and faster than preceding SST designs such asConcorde.
The SST was the topic of considerable concern within and outside the aviation industry. From the start, the airline industry had noted that the economics of the design were questionable, concerns that were only partially addressed during development. Outside the field, the entire SST concept was the subject of considerable negative press, centered on the issue ofsonic boomsand effects on theozone layer.
A key design feature of the 2707 was its use of aswing wingconfiguration. During development the required weight and size of this mechanism continued to grow, forcing the team to start over using a conventionaldelta wing. Rising costs and the lack of a clear market led to its cancellation in 1971 before twoprototypeshad been completed\"
