Description:
A pack in a classic European style, the design of which combines restraint and elegance. The upper part is dominated by a white background, in the center of which is a red vertical shield with a golden silhouette of a woman in profile, surrounded by a laurel branch motif. The lower part is light brown (tobacco shade) with a subtle golden line separating the design zones. The inscription "DANIBRAND" is presented in a solid black font, below it - "Mixed Tobacco Style", indicating a mixed tobacco type blend, typical of European export products. On the side is marked "Sole importer for the RF VO Technopromexport", which indicates export to the USSR or other regions belonging to the Eastern Bloc.
Value assessment:
– Collectible value: Medium–higher. The pack is interesting as a typical example of a Western European export tobacco product supplied to Eastern markets during the Cold War. Such specimens are becoming increasingly rare, especially unpackaged.
– Condition assessment: Very good - unopened, in original foil, with small traces of metallic-colored stains on the foil, typical of older editions.
– Historical data and popularity: „Danibrand was not a widely known trade name in Western Europe, but it often appeared in export packages intended for Eastern European consumers. Such packages testify to the economic and trade links between Western manufacturers and the tobacco import systems of socialist countries.
