One of the great figures of the Metropolitan Opera's 20th-century history, the Italian bass Ezio Pinza made his Met debut in November 1926, and sang with the house for 22 seasons – more than 750 performances in total. In recognition of this exhausting service, the drinking fountains in the Lincoln Center opera house are dedicated to him. According to minutes of the Metropolitan Opera Guild, Pinza used this cigarette holder in the 1949 season of South Pacific at New York's Majestic Theater.
