Description:<\/strong>
This Kent pack is part of the historic "Famous Micronite Filter" line - one of the most recognizable and controversial tobacco innovations in history, due to the asbestos filter used at the time. The "King Size Box" version is made in the USA, which makes it even more authentic - this is the original market from which Kent products began their journey back in 1952.<\/p>\n

The package features a classic white background with fine lines, a gold border, and a blue heraldic logo at the top. The inscriptions are in English, and the country of manufacture is clearly indicated as the USA. This is a hard package, which is a somewhat rarer form of survival than the soft one - especially from this period. The surface shows clear signs of aging (brown spots), but the package is undamaged and unopened.<\/p>\n
