Chesterfield Cigarettes

The Liggett & Myers Tobacco Company is known for Chesterfield, a cigarette brand that they manufactured from 1911 until 1998. The Drummond Tobacco Company of St. Louis, Missouri began making Chesterfield cigarettes in 1873. A 'plug tobacco war' was fought during 1897 and 1898 with Drummond and Liggett & Myers on one side, and American Tobacco Company on the other. In October, 1898, Liggett & Myers became part of ATCo trust and continued to produce Chesterfield until the 1911 trust dissolution. L&M reblended and repackaged Chesterfield to compete with the 1913 introduction of Camel Cigarettes. Nowadays, Chesterfield is manufactured by Philip Morris.
At present Chesterfield cigarettes are a classic favorite, as Pall Mall and Lucky Strike cigarettes. At due period Chesterfield was one of the most smoked brands of cigarettes in the United States. Both versions - filtered and non-filtered ones were spread, though non filtered Chesterfield considered being very strong. James Dean, a famous American film actor, whose mainstream status was considered as to be a cultural icon for masses, was known to be an inveterate Chesterfield smoker, who took up two packs of the brand daily.
