Description: This pack of Major Extra Size cigarettes features a classic design – a dark green background with a white top and a gold stripe. The front of the pack states that it is an „extra size“ version – which can mean longer or thicker cigarettes. The manufacturer, PJ Carroll & Co. Ltd., has been in business since 1824 and is one of the oldest tobacco manufacturers in Ireland. Warnings in English („Tobacco seriously damages health“, „Don't smoke if you want to stay healthy“) indicate that the pack is intended for the Irish market.
