$59.99

This collection features vintage Philip Morris and Marlboro tobacciana items, presenting a nostalgic look back at the branding and design of a bygone era in tobacco advertising. Included in this lot are:

1. A worn Marlboro Cigarettes tin box with a distressed aesthetic that suggests significant age. The box has the classic Marlboro branding and the Philip Morris & Co. Ltd. Inc. name, emphasizing the "mildness of America's best" and "the richness of the oriental leaf."

2. A golden Philip Morris & Co. tin with a regal design, stating "Established over 50 years" and "Finest Selection." It's branded as an English blend and made in the U.S.A., with additional text that reinforces its heritage and quality commitment.

3. A vintage Marlboro lighter with a prominent image of the iconic Marlboro cowboy, set against a white background with the red Marlboro crest. This piece is particularly evocative of the era when the cowboy was a central figure in Marlboro's marketing campaigns.

4. The reverse side of the Philip Morris tin reveals more about the English blend, guaranteeing the absence of deleterious flavoring and highlighting the authenticity of the product with the initials of the firm printed on each cigarette.

These items are likely to appeal to collectors of vintage tobacco products, advertising memorabilia, and enthusiasts of mid-20th-century Americana. Each piece showcases the art and style of tobacco advertising before the age of digital marketing, with a focus on quality and luxury. They are not only collectibles but also artifacts of the cultural history of smoking and advertising.
