Of course, the coolest cigarette packet design ever was the one for the short-lived Death Cigarettes brand, which despite being hugely successful was inexplicably short-lived.

Or rather, it became all too explicable when I found out that for some unaccountable reason all the other cigarette manufacturers weren’t too keen on their products being sold alongside black packets with a skull and crossbones motif and threatened a boycott, thus forcing Death into the mail-order business – and, since selling fags by post is intrinsically silly, ultimately into oblivion.
