Description:
This pack of „Азербайджан“ cigarettes is one of the classic Soviet regional editions, representing the tobacco production of the Azerbaijan SSR. The design is simple but distinctive: a white background, a blue vertical rectangle with an oriental arch, and at the bottom – the name is presented in both Cyrillic (АЗЕРБАЙДЖАН) and Azerbaijani transcription. On the left side of the pack it is indicated: „Сигареты с фильтром. Класс второй“ – this means that the product is classified as quality class II according to the USSR classification of that time. The solid type and little attention to detail in the design make the pack look exceptionally representative.
