Value assessment:
-
Collectible value: Medium-High. Madison is a rarer brand that existed for a limited time and was sold mainly in Western European markets, especially Switzerland and the Benelux countries. Due to its limited distribution and small number of surviving copies, this pack is considered valuable among collectors interested in luxury European cigarette designs.
-
Condition assessment: Good – the package has not been opened, the original cellophane is intact, but there are slight storage marks on the surface, typical of old packages.
-
Historical data and popularity: „The Madison brand belonged to Ed. Laurens International Group, which was known for its luxury and limited edition products. The line disappeared from the market by the mid-1990s, so surviving packs are rare.
