QR Code Link to This Post
• Contents: A complete collection of 28 miniature cardboard matchboxes. The outer edges highlight a modular arrangement of distinct, color-coded promotional lines, including:
o Camel Special Lights Pack Graphics (Classic camel silhouette against a desert background with palm trees).
o Joe Camel "Genuine Taste" Graphics (Featuring Joe Camel in a blue suit playing a saxophone against a brick wall backdrop).
• Value Factors: Single loose vintage Camel matchbooks are generally worth very little on their own. However, these specific 28-count presentation cubes carry a clear structural premium. Having all 28 inner matchboxes accounted for in pristine, unfired condition, while still paired directly with the original "UN 1944" stamped factory shipping carton, secures a valuation at the peak of this collectible's market tier.
• Display Structure: Housed within its original, transparent clear acrylic/plastic presentation collector's cube.
• Packaging: Includes the original brown cardboard factory outer shipping carton. The side label is stamped with hazardous material / freight identification markings reading "UN 1944 MATCHES, SAFETY".
• Condition: Mint / New Old Stock (NOS). The inner acrylic display block remains clean with clear transparency and no micro-fractures. Every matchbox inside is pristine and completely full of unused, unstruck safety matches. The outer shipping box is complete, fully functional, and showing only minor storage wear.
