Abstract

A hinge-lid box for cigarettes has a box part (10) and lid (11). A lid front wall (19) and a box front wall (15) form closing edges which are located opposite each other, specifically a lid closing edge (34) and an opposing closing edge (35). The closing edges (34, 35) are arranged at a distance from each other in such a way that, in the region of a field of view or a gap (40) which assumes different shapes, a sub-area of a collar (28), specifically a collar front wall (29), is visible.
