Historical data and popularity:
„The Player's brand was introduced in the 19th century and remained popular until the end of the 20th century. This pack probably dates back to the 1980s and 1990s, when Player's No. 6 was one of the cheaper but more widely available British cigarettes. Packs of this design are often included in retrospectives of British tobacco design due to their colour scheme and style.
