WW1 Match book covers

I too have never seen one like it.
I have a standard "Gott Mit Uns" cover, which my grandfather brought back from WW1. I lost it while on a hike my freshman year in college and miraculously found it on the trail my junior year in college!
The cover had weathered two Ohio winters without anybody spotting it and returned to my possesion in a million to one chance.
I have and treasure it today.
