Third Reich Cigarettes, authentic?

[GPO Man]

Are these period correct or reproductions? I looked under a magnifying glass and didn’t notice any obvious pixelation. Thanks for looking.

They look like fantasy pieces to me, far too flashy in design. Another case of 'how many Nazi symbols can we fit on one object'. German soldiers would have smoked the same cigarette brands as the civilian population, just as British soldiers liked Woodbines and G.I.s were fond of Lucky Strike. There was a brand of cigarettes known as 'Sturm', which existed pre-war and were marketed towards members of the S.A., but they fell out of favour long before the start of WWII in the aftermath of the Night of the Long Knives.

Hello. These are cigarettes from the period that were made for the people for propaganda purposes and not for the army. If they were used by the army, I think there must be a marking of the Wehrmacht, but this is just my opinion. I've seen other ones offered, but the three little boxes look very new.
