:: Kent Cigarettes ::
Kent is a brand of cigarettes first to introduce smoke filters in 1952. At the period from March 1952 until at least May 1956, the Micronite filter in Kent cigarettes had a form of asbestos. At Present Kent uses charcoal filters (a kind of activated carbon).
During the first Beatles' visit to the United States they occasionally took part in the expressing of their interest in Kent cigarettes. An announcer of a commercial Radio convinced the auditorium that Kent cigs are filtered ones which really satisfy, the smoker enjoys them and present the better emotions than anything else for the day, their Micronite filter is an exclusive one. Paul McCartney and John Lennon, being in the same studio, supported him.
NOTICE: The manufacturer of this brand stopped releasing the cigarettes in hard cartons. Instead, they will come in 2 rows by 5 packs, wrapped in cellophane.
