Value assessment:
-
Collectible value: Medium-High. Craven "A" packs are still valued for their historical significance, and the specific "Plain Tipped" edition is rarer than the regular filter variants.
-
Condition assessment: Unopened, in original film, very good condition, excise stamp visible.
-
Historical data and popularity: Craven „A” was extremely popular in the British colonies and on the international market in the mid-20th century. This edition retains the iconic aesthetic and appeal to collectors interested in British tobacco.
