Item Description and History

Manufacturer: Nestor Gianaclis was founded in Egypt in the last third of the 19th century by the Greek entrepreneur Nestor Gianaclis. It became a pioneer and one of the leaders in the industry of the famous elite "Egyptian cigarettes," produced from high-quality Turkish tobacco.

Era: Judging by the design, logo, and "Cigaretten" inscription, this box was produced between the 1910s and 1930s by the German branch of the factory (in Frankfurt or Mainz). At that time, oriental motifs in tobacco advertising were at the peak of popularity.

Capacity: The pack held 25 cigarettes. The "Queen" brand was considered a luxury brand; At certain periods, this brand even produced cigarettes with 22-karat gold-plated mouthpieces.

Design: A vibrant lithograph on the cap depicts an oriental motif—a rider on a white horse, a woman in traditional dress, palm trees, and the silhouette of an oriental city on the horizon.
