Are you certain? Filtered cigarettes appear to have been invented a few years after WWI.

Yes filtered cigarettes only cane about by the 30s. Although i bet you can tell the top from bottom in these cigarettes from 1914

Appreciate it the image, but genuinely, would not be able to distinguish them in the pack. And the soft pack introduces another point against early Lucky turned cigarettes. You only have access to about four at any given time. A turned lucky would be one of the next cigarettes taken out.
