Build a novel cigarette automat

Don't need to smoke to want to build this automat duck, I've seen fun rolled up fortune cookie like cigarette messages and artwork the same size, Modern Mechanix 1938 -

"YOU probably never saw a real live bird that looked like this one, but then you never saw a real live bird do what this one does. When you want a cigarette he bobs down and comes up with one in his beak, just like that. Unlike most trick cigarette boxes, this one won't be discarded very soon because you and your friends will never get tired of having cigarettes handed to you in this novel manner." - Link.

I have a toothpick dispenser that is exactly like this. I got it in Taiwan about 15 years ago.
