Description:
„The Lung cigarette pack is an intense red with a golden Chinese character for "龍" ("Dragon") and the Latin name "Lung". The dragon fire sign printed on the top emphasizes the oriental theme, while the side contains information in Chinese, including tar and nicotine content. The bottom of the pack contains a warning about the dangers of smoking in Chinese. The bottom reads in English "Comes from the senior Japanese taste longevity cigarettes", which suggests an attempt to convey higher quality or Japanese influence. The design is intended for the East Asian market. The pack is tightly sealed, with a factory film.
Value assessment:
Collectible value: Medium. The pack stands out for its color scheme, oriental symbolism, and combination of two languages (Chinese and English). This may be of interest to collectors who collect cigarette packs from the Asian region or thematic editions with cultural symbolism.
Condition assessment: Unopened, original film, very good condition.
Historical data and popularity: There is no evidence that Lung was a widely known brand or exported to the international market. The production of such packages was limited, most likely aimed at a local or specific market (tourist or thematic).
