Description:
The Kyiv (Київ) cigarette pack features a classic Soviet-era design – a dominant contrast of red and cream, and a coat of arms with the city’s symbols visible in the upper part. The inscriptions on the pack are in Ukrainian and Russian, indicating that production took place before the collapse of the Soviet Union. The pack is hard, in its original film, retaining a nostalgic aesthetic. It is a representative example of the tobacco culture of the late USSR.
