CELLOPHANE WRAPPING

Cellophane wrapping is subject to deterioration with age. It can shrink, discolour, turn brittle, split, or heat sealed joints can open. Where possible cellophane is left as found unless it is so bad as to spoil the product appearance or is damaging the packet itself by shrinking, in which  case it is sometimes removed. Product grades do not refer to the condition of cellophane wrappings.

CONTENTS.

Processed tobacco contains moisture and other elements and additives that break down over time and is absorbed by the surrounding material. This often results in the degradation of internal wrapping papers, foils and hermetic seals, and sometimes the packet or tin itself is affected by mottling, discolouration, rust or mould. Product grades do not refer to the condition of packet/tin contents which are included as found.

All products sold on this web site are vintage collectibles and any tobacco contents are not fit for smoking.
