An Improvement relating to Cigarette Tips.
I HENRY GOLDENFARB trading as H. Gold of 345 City Road, N.E. in the
County of London, Cigarette Manufacturer, do hereby declare the nature of this
invention to be as follows:-
The object of this invention is to make the tips or ends of cigarettes so that
they shall not stick to the lips and shall also be cool when smoking.
According to this invention I surround the top end of the cigarette with straw
(preferably Japanese straw or the like).
One way of carrying this invention into effect is to split the lengths of straw
open and cement such lengths on to paper and then cut the same into strips
(crosswise of the grain) of the desired width and then cut same into lengths
sufficient to go round the top end of the cigarette which lengths may be
cemented on.
