Antique Muratti’s Neb-Ka Cigarette Tin 1920s B. Muratti Sons Manchester

Striking 1920s cigarette tin for Muratti’s “Neb-Ka” brand, by B. Muratti Sons & Co. Ltd. of Manchester and London — one of the great names in early cigarette history, founded in 1821 Istanbul and later a major British and German tobacco house. Bold two-tone blue lithography depicts an evocative Bosphorus harbor scene with sailboats, minarets, and veiled figures.

Muratti is a significant, internationally recognized cigarette brand with a documented 200-year history, making this tin a standout for serious tobacciana collectors. Retains strong original color with only light general wear — a genuinely collectible piece of early 20th-century advertising art.
