Abstract

A cigarette mini-pack (10) comprises a box container (12) and an integral hinge lid (14) . Both the box container (12) and the hinge lid (14) have a generally square cross section. The hinge lid (14) includes front (28) , top (26) and back (24) panels with interconnecting side panels (30) (32) (34) (36) . The front panel (28) of the hinge lid (14) does not include a fold back panel and instead comprises a single thickness of material. Without a fold back panel, the blank (22) for forming the cigarette mini-pack (10) includes upper and lower angled edges that compliment one another. A cut (60) separating serially arranged blanks (22) (22' ) simultaneously forms the lower angled edge of one blank (22) and the top angled edge of the trailing blank (22') -
