Description:
Denim blu is a softer version of the Denim line, the packaging is blue, with a modern, minimalist design. The name is written in large vertical letters, and the marking „"blue American blend"” issues an American-style tobacco blend intended for the Eastern European or CIS market. Warnings are provided in Russian: „Smoking kills“ (Smoking kills) and „"Smoking is the cause of chronic lung disease"“ (Smoking is a cause of chronic lung diseases), which confirms exports to Russian-speaking countries.
Value assessment:
-
Collectible value: Low-Medium. While Denim is not a very old or prestigious brand, the packs with Russian warnings and different color versions (e.g. "blue") are somewhat rarer than the classic "Red" releases. Such packs are of interest to collectors seeking to own a complete series or sets by market.
-
Condition assessment: Unopened, in excellent condition. Corners are not bent, film is clean and undamaged.
-
Historical data and popularity: The denim brand is one of the budget lines, most common in Eastern Europe, the CIS and the Balkans. Due to its cheapness, it was not actively collected at the time, but now some versions are gaining value in the eyes of collectors as examples of marketing from the past decade.
