The picture below shows a larger view of this Old Johannesburg South Africa Advertising Souvenir Enameled Metal Ashtray. It is not dated. The ashtray looks like it may be made of nickel but we do not know for sure. It has a decorative top and edge. In the center is an enameled seal. It is marked ''JOHANNESBURG'' below the seal. The ashtray measures 3-3/4'' x 3-3/4''. It appears to be in near mint condition as pictured. Below here, for reference is some information about Johannesburg, South Africa:

Johannesburg
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Johannesburg

Nickname(s): Jo'burg; Jozi; Egoli (City of Gold); Gauteng (Place of Gold); Maboneng (City of Lights); Jozi; Africa's greatest City; Jigaburg; JHB

Motto: A world class African city

Country: South Africa
Province: Gauteng
Established: 1886
Government: Mayor
City Area: 1,644.96 km2Ê(635.1 sq. mi.)
Elevation: 1,753 m (5,751 ft.)
City Population (2007): 3,888,180

Johannesburg, also known as Jozi, Jo'burg or eGoli, is the largest city in South Africa. Johannesburg is the provincial capital of Gauteng, the wealthiest province in South Africa, having the largest economy of any metropolitan region in Sub Saharan Africa. The city is one of the 40 largest metropolitan areas in the world, and is also the world's largest city not situated on a river, lake, or coastline. While Johannesburg is not officially one of South Africa's three capital cities, it does house the Constitutional Court, South Africa's highest court. Johannesburg is the source of a large scale gold and diamond trade, due to its location on the mineral rich Witwatersrand range of hills. Johannesburg is served by O.R. Tambo International Airport, the largest and busiest airport in Africa and a gateway for international air travel to and from the rest of southern Africa.

According to the 2007 Community Survey, the population of the municipal city was 3,888,180 and the population of the Greater Johannesburg Metropolitan Area was 7,151,447. A broader definition of the Johannesburg metropolitan area, including Ekhuruleni, the West Rand, Soweto and Lenasia, has a population of 10,267,700. The municipal city's land area of 1,645 km2 (635 sq. mi.) is very large when compared to other cities, resulting in a moderate population density of 2,364 /km2 (6,120 sq. mi.).

Johannesburg once again includes Soweto, which was a separate city from the late 1970s until the 1990s. Originally an acronym for ''SOuth-WEstern TOwnships'', Soweto originated as a collection of settlements on the outskirts of Johannesburg populated mostly by native African workers in the gold mining industry. Eventually incorporated into Johannesburg, the apartheid regime (in power 1949 - 1994) separated Soweto from the rest of Johannesburg to make it a completely Black area. Lenasia is also part of Johannesburg.

Gauteng is growing rapidly due to mass urbanisation which is a feature of many developing countries. According to the State of the Cities Report, the urban portion of Gauteng, comprised primarily of the cities of Johannesburg, Ekurhuleni (the East Rand) and Tshwane (greater Pretoria), will be a polycentric urban region with a projected population of some 14.6 million people by 2015.
