Lucille Ball Philip Morris I LOVE LUCY Vintage 1953 Christmas Cigarette Carton:

Authentic, vintage cigarette carton! Not a reproduction.

This Christmas-themed carton of cigarettes was sold for a short-period of time in 1953 — only during the holiday season. Nearly 70 years later, the cigarettes are long gone but the wonderfully rare cardboard cigarette carton is being offered here!

Carton measures 11” across and features color images of Desi Arnaz, Lucille Ball, and “Johnny,” Phillip Morris spokesman.

Artwork also includes a red ribbon featuring Lucy and Desi’s names and a holiday-themed holly branch and berries.

Considering the age, scarcity, and how few have survived, carton is in overall very nice condition.

See posted images as all panels are documented in the posted photos.

Carton does have some soiling and a small puncture near Desi’s shoulder on one panel. See last posted image.

From a smoke-free, pet-free environment.
