Description:
This is a classic West cigarette pack, featuring a striking red and white colour scheme. The West logo with a red stripe is clearly visible at the top, and the words „FAMOUS QUALITY TOBACCOS“ are printed at the bottom. This design is typical of international export permits before the European Union directives on health warnings came into force. The sides of the pack read „20 Class A Cigarettes“, further indicating the orientation towards non-European markets.
