Description:
This pack of cigarettes "Klaipėda" was released in a limited edition, marking the 35th anniversary of Klaipėda's annexation to the USSR - this is indicated by the emblematic sign "XXXV 1945–1980" in the center of the pack. The pack is divided into two color zones - the upper part is white with the emblem, the lower part is red with the inscription "KLAIPĖDA" and a stylized wave ornament.

This is a representative, thematic edition from the Klaipėda Tobacco Factory, which was one of the main producers of this type of product in Lithuania.
