Description:
„The Avangard No.4 cigarette pack has a very minimalist design, featuring a clean combination of white and silver colors. Vertical silver stripes are arranged at the top, and the name “Avangard No.4„ is written in simple letters in the center. The lower part contains the inscription “Smooth Purified Taste – New Enriched Flavor„, emphasizing the lighter taste and filtered quality of tobacco. Information about the “Innovative Selective Filtration System„ is highlighted on the back, emphasizing that the cigarettes feature a filter based on natural absorbents. On top is the original excise sticker from Bosnia and Herzegovina – price 2.70 KM, allowing you to date the pack as intended for the regional market. On the side is the manufacturer’s information – “TDR Rovinj, Croatia„, one of the oldest tobacco manufacturers in the Balkans.
Value assessment:
Collectible value: Medium to higher, as the Avangard series packs were produced in limited quantities, mainly for the regional market, so specimens in clean condition are relatively rare.
Condition assessment: Unopened, with original film and excise sticker, in excellent condition.
Historical data and popularity: Avangard was one of the experimental brands of TDR (Tvornica Duhana Rovinj), focusing on modern design and innovative filtration technology. Due to their limited distribution, these packs are of interest to collectors, especially from the Central European region.
