Gold tipped and scented, Rosita Cigarettes were made for the ladies. Need pastel colored cigarettes for that perfect cocktail party? Then, gold tipped and multicolored Du Barry would have been the logical choice. The Rosedor Cigarette Company of Brooklyn, NY began making Du Barry in 1926 and Rosita in 1928. Superb pack graphics and vivid colors make these eye-grabbing designs a standout in any pack collection. Rosedor made many specialty brands from 1915 until the mid to late 1930's, but are best remembered for their scented Salome, extra long Longfellow, and economical Bright Star cigarettes.

In 1996 my good friend, the late Carl Clawson of Maryland, created a very comprehensive compendium of US cigarette brands. The following is a list of cigarettes made by Rosedor: Ambre Rouge, Blue Fox, Bright Star, Bristol, Brown and Gold, Collegian, Diana, Du Barry, Ebonies, Egyptienne Elegantes, Gold and White, A Golden Gift (A golden gift for your throat), Greenland's Clover, Havana Queens, Imperial Crown No. 15, Imperial Crown No. 25, Imperial Russian, Ivanoff, Ivanoff No. 26, Longfellow, Longfellow Petites, Menthorettes, Rosedor, Rosita, Rough and Ready, Royal Club, Royalty, Rus Blend, Rus Crown, Salome Egyptian Varieties, Salome Ideal, Salome Perfumed, and Winner's Crown.
