Laramie (cigarette)
# Laramie (cigarette)

Laramie was a brand of cigarettes extant in the United States from the 1930s into the 1950s. Later, the name was used for a cigarette rolling kit. Laramie is currently a brand name for cigarette papers and cigarette tubes (rolling papers pre-formed into a tube, for use in home tobacco injector systems) marketed by HBI International.

## In popular culture

Although they have been out of production since the 1950s, Laramie cigarettes have appeared on The Simpsons. In the show, they sponsor a child beauty pageant and have a corporate mascot named Menthol Moose, who can be seen at parades in Springfield. Laramie has also appeared in The Practice (season one, episode four), during a storyline about a tobacco lawsuit. In the 23rd episode of the 2nd season of The X-Files, Laramie Tobacco is mentioned as a missing person's former workplace. Laramie was also the brand name used for cigarettes in the 1999 classic sci-fi horror game System Shock 2, but the packaging design resembled that of Marlboro; very similar to Morley (cigarette) from the tv show The X-Files.
