The pack is blue in color, with a white logo, eagle symbols and star motifs imitating the image of the United States. This edition was produced according to the then Russian GOST standards, which specified the burning tar and nicotine levels. The design reflects a period when local manufacturers sought to provide alternatives to Western brands. The inscriptions &quot;American Blend&quot; and the name &quot;Memphis&quot; were used as signs of an international style, but the product itself was produced locally.<\/p>\n<hr data-start=\"995\" data-end=\"998\" \/>\n<p data-start=\"1000\" data-end=\"1023\"><strong data-start=\"1000\" data-end=\"1023\">Value assessment:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul data-start=\"1025\" data-end=\"1616\">\n<li data-start=\"1025\" data-end=\"1278\">\n<p data-start=\"1027\" data-end=\"1278\"><strong data-start=\"1027\" data-end=\"1047\">Collectible value:<\/strong> Medium \u2013 Although the package was not a limited edition, its design reflects one of the specific attempts by Russian production to enter the \u201eWestern style\u201c market.
