Description:
Houston “King Size” is a cigarette pack with a bright, tricolor-like design, consisting of red, white and blue vertical stripes. The name „HOUSTON“ is presented in the center and a small coat of arms above it. The design is typical of the 1990-2000 post-Soviet tobacco market brands that sought to imitate Western aesthetics. The pack is cellophane-wrapped, perfectly preserved, without printing damage or deformation. This type of regional mid-range pack from this period is becoming increasingly rare on the market today.
Value assessment:
Collectible value: Average. Houston is not a widely known brand, but regional releases from 1990-2000 have their own niche demand, especially when they remain cellophane-wrapped.
Condition assessment: Unopened, cellophane wrapped, very good condition.
Historical data and popularity: Houston belonged to the economy-middle class segment, common in Russia, Ukraine and other post-Soviet markets. Due to the low brand awareness, demand is not high, but units in good condition are valued in the collecting community as representative examples of the era.
