Description:
„Corner Blue 100's is one of the budget international cigarette brands focused on Eastern Europe and the Baltic countries. The pack has a minimalist design: the top part is light blue with the inscription "BLUE 100's", and the main part is light cream with the Corner logo and a golden tick symbol. The bottom part has the inscription in Estonian: "Suitsetamine zasotab tervist" ("Smoking is harmful to health"), and the top part has the Estonian excise stamp.
This brand, although not widely known globally, is notable for being often custom-made for smaller markets. The 100mm length of the cigarettes suggests that this product was aimed at the "premium style" segment with a longer burning cigarette.
Value assessment:
-
Collectible value: Low-medium. Since the pack is not a well-known brand (like Camel, Marlboro or Lucky Strike) and was not issued as a collector's edition, its value among collectors is not high. However, due to its limited geographical distribution and specific market (Estonia/Baltic countries), it may be of interest to thematic collectors.
-
Condition assessment: Excellent. Unopened, with excise stamp, film in good condition, unfaded. This increases the value as a preserved historical item.
-
Historical data and popularity: „Corner cigarettes were more common in the 2000s, especially in Poland, Estonia, and Ukraine. Due to the lower brand recognition, they are rarely sought after by collectors on the international market.
