The status of collectors
Cigarette label is one of the four largest print collections in the world, and there are cigarette label collectors all over the world. For them, the design, printing, production level and style of cigarette labels are the main things. A rare cigarette label is far more valuable to them than the cigarette itself. Their hobby is by no means an unsolvable quirk, because all tobacco manufacturers spare no effort to find the best design for the appearance of their products, paving the way for the hot sale of cigarettes.
Social conditions of design
The design of cigarette labels often takes advantage of some realistic social conditions, and the correct choice has great appeal. At this time, it is all kinds of place names and brands full of local pride and popular trademarks, not just the taste and price of cigarettes. China's calligraphy is a profound art, and wherever there are words, it has its place. Tobacco labels are the place where it shows its talents. Tobacco manufacturers have the right to collect the most famous calligraphers and the best works, which makes more tobacco labels beautiful and attracts the appreciation of many calligraphy lovers.
1985 On New Year's Day, the first cigarette label collection association in China was established in Nanjing, the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties. Mr. Yu Jinlin, a famous cigarette label collector (deceased), said with deep affection that cigarette cases have appeared on the land of our country for nearly a hundred years, and their fans have collected them for about 70 years, and their popular names have been used to this day. There are more and more collectors, and popular appellations are becoming more and more unsuitable for the development of forms. It's time to correct the name of cigarette case, so as to facilitate the standardization of collection and exchange activities. He believes that popular names such as cigarette cases can only explain the packaging form of cigarettes, but ignore the role of their trademarks, so they should be called "cigarette labels", which can accurately reflect the agreed attributes of packaging forms and trademarks, and also prepare for their future collection. Mr. Yu Jinlin's formulation has been unanimously recognized by collectors in the national tobacco label industry, which has influenced and driven a number of collectors since then.
