Abstract
A cigarette container having a unitary, integral outer envelope utilizes a series of folds within discreet folding domains to form a lower cigarette containing portion and an upper flip top portion containing a match drawer cavity. A conventional inner insert is glued to the inner surface of the outer envelope to retain the cigarettes firmly but permit easy access thereto. A rectangular drawer for housing stick-type matches is provided which can be accessed from either side of the cigarette container. A striker surface is coated on one or more sides of the drawer as a convenience to left and right handed smokers.
