But yeah, Luckies were green *until the war.

*EDIT: Found a snopes article all about Luckies during WWII. Apparently they changed from green to white packages, claiming a war need for green dye, but probably was a marketing thing.

Haviing read the above, concentrated a bit more... have to admit that I really can't recall Lucky Strikes coming in a cardboard package at any time.
Nor can I remember seeing cartons of Lucky Strikes, back when they were green.
It's the tins I remember most my Grandfather kept a stack of them in his Humidor along with some Cigars and pipe tobaccos.
My Father smoked Chesterfields and Cigars. Only memories of my Grandfather smoking are of Pipes and rarely cigarettes or Between The Acts.
Tho I know he had some Perfectos and Panatellas in that Humidor.
