FOR SALE: Large collection of approximately 109 vintage Camel cigarette advertising matchbooks, primarily dating from the 1990s. This is an unusually substantial assortment containing dozens of different Camel promotional graphics, designs and variations rather than a large quantity of one identical matchbook.
The collection includes numerous Joe Camel / The Hard Pack character designs, including Eddie and other illustrated character scenes, along with Camel Genuine Taste, Camel Powered, classic Camel logo, geometric, abstract, sports, nightlife/cocktail, psychedelic and other promotional advertising designs. Many designs are represented only once, while others have two or more examples, making this a great collection for someone interested in vintage Camel advertising, tobacciana, matchbook collecting, or 1990s promotional memorabilia.
Approximately 109 matchbooks total are included. The exact assortment shown in the photos is the collection the buyer will receive.
CONDITION: Vintage pre-owned collection in mixed condition. The significant majority of the matchbooks appear complete with all or substantially all of their original matches still intact, and many appear unused/unstruck. Some matchbooks have had one or more matches removed or used, and some striker strips show evidence of use. Covers exhibit varying degrees of age, storage and handling wear including edge wear, creasing, scuffs, bends, discoloration and other cosmetic imperfections. Condition varies from matchbook to matchbook. Please review all photos carefully for the exact assortment and overall condition.
PLEASE NOTE: Approximately 109 matchbooks are included; because of the size of the collection, individual match counts have not been verified for every book. No representation is being made that every matchbook is complete or unused. Most appear substantially or completely intact, while some clearly show previous use.
SHIPPING: Packaged with care and shipped within 1–2 business days (excluding holidays). Because these contain actual safety matches, shipping will be handled using an eligible ground transportation method in accordance with applicable carrier requirements.
