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[1] and cigarette tubes (rolling papers pre-formed into a tube, for use in home tobacco injector systems) marketed by HBI International.
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.[2] [3] Laramie has also appeared in The Practice (season one, episode four), during a storyline about a tobacco lawsuit. In the episode Soft Light 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 sci-fi horror game System Shock 2, but the packaging design resembled that of Marlboro; similar to the fictional Morley brand in many films and shows.
