Description:
This is the second one. Camel Genuine Sydney series edition, featuring a cool blue design depicting the Sydney Opera House against the evening sky. This pack is intended for the Argentine market, as evidenced by the Spanish language inscriptions and the official Code No. 17 excise stamp with a camel logo.
The text on the back refers to the website camel.com.ar and invites you to participate in the lottery (“"Enter OPERA in www.camel.com.ar and participate in the draw”), which confirms the release period when Camel was running interactive online advertising projects in South America.
The design is exceptionally aesthetic: a clear, contrasting blue background, a subtle reflection of the Opera House in the water, and above - CAMEL Genuine Sydney logo with a metallic tint.
Value assessment:
– Collectible value: High - This edition is rarer than the previous (gold) version. Collectors often seek out both versions together, as they symbolize the day and night color variations within the same city series.
– Condition assessment: excellent, original film, undamaged.
– Historical data and popularity: This pack was part of the Camel Genuine Cities project, released in limited quantities and distributed only in some Latin American countries. The Sydney variant is one of the most visually impressive in the entire series, making it a sought-after item for design collectors.
