SALEM Ice

So far, this seems like the best pack that

SALEM has produced - the special limited edition 

extra cooling sensation SALEM Ice,

our showcase for the month of September.

But it is still SALEM's menthol at it's best!

And the special display Ice cube casing for retailers only, 

which I am very fortunate to have them!

I also collected the full height display stand from the retailer!

The stand is now on display in my Data Room, my workplace.

And not forgetting the SALEM Ice's attractive carton box too!

Well, the showcase of next month will be MILD Seven,

an initiation by an ardent visitor, Kurt, 

who is now my FACEBOOK friend!

And, as usual, remembering SALEM Ice, the Septmember showcase

Marlboro Flip-up Box

Before I wraps up Marlboro for this month, 
and proceed to SALEM Ice, showcase of September,

here is another old unforgettable pack!

Yes, a flip up special in limited edition

that looks like a lighter!

Hope you eNjOy this cute collection of mine!

 And I even collected the counter display box. 
Ooops! But I've even forgotten which retailer gave it to me!

Ultra Lights

Well, as Marlboro started some new generation packs of flavors,

there came one after the other and Ultra Lights has been one of them!

I can't really remember back then if this was a special limited edition,

but it didn't stand long on the shelves! I have not smoked it anyway as 

I just happened to collect them from a canteen at the shipyard! 

Lucky me always meeting nice retailers!
Guess so I'll never quite end Marlboro's range as yet 
but I will be caught up at month end when I had to
settle for SALEM ICE, showcase brand of September month!

 

Above close up view shows the special unique design.

The Mint of Marlboro

In the event of coping up with the new generation of smokers,

like other cigarette producers, Marlboro too have been working

hard on producing more flavors, 

or rather I should say more styles for smokers!

And so, came the lavishly looking Fresh Mint pack! 

2007 seems to be a busy year for most cigarette companies

to get going on new ideas before the new regulations, the new directive 

that was finally strictly being imposed in 2008.

eNjOy the view!

The Mint in Special wrap-around pack

This has been a special limited edition

The Mint Special plastic case

This has been a very special Limited Pack

The Mint in Bubble pack

This was also another Limited Edition of Marlboro's Fresh Mint flavor

which I believe many have not even got a glimpse of it.

The moment it touches the retail's shelf, it was snapped up!

And never seen again!

eNjOy the view!

Marlboro for a Occasion

Reminiscing the current celebration of Aidilfitri on the special packages 

that once Marlboro used to issue,

this has been one of them that we hardly get to see these days!

But anyway, during the past fasting month of Ramadan,
not only the Muslims don't eat nor have a drop of water,
nobody even can have a smoke!

The above special boxes were issued in 2007
 Hope you eNjOy the view!

Along came a blue pack!

After such long period of the 3 classics, 

there finally came a lighter flavor of Marlboro,

a blue box!

An addition to the family!

Marlboro's beginning

It has been hard for people, smokers especially,

to remember by the original Marlboro packs that lasted over a decade

and the boxes were not being remembered by many.

Well, but lucky me who have this interest, have kept some of those!

These have been the 3 classics of Marlboro. Have a pleasant view!

Marlboro's past sports publicity

I was going through my older bLoGs after being absent 

from here for half a month and while at my July 7th's 

Marlboro special sports packs, it reminded me of 

one of the last full page newspaper advertisements

on the F1 Ferraris at The Malaysian Grand Prix in 1999.

These days we are really getting smaller ads on such occasions 

and I have 2 of the best remembered pieces that I've kept and

I am sharing them here. Of course I have many of such ads 

over the years but these are two of my favorites! 

Hope you will like them too!

They are actually poster collections to one of my hobbies!

This goes to say I not only collect cigarette boxes but also adverts,

posters and memorabilia as my collectibles!

eNjOy the view! 
A Picture says it all better than a thousand words!
