Black Cat Medium CigarettesWere first introduced in the UK by Carreras Ltd. in 1904 and the company was a pacesetter in the British tobacco market. It was among the first to sell machine-made cigarettes, and the company was at its most successful in the 1920s.
Black Cats were withdrawn from sale during the Second World War, but experienced several resurgences until they were ultimately discontinued in 1993.
