This packaging mimics the design of a pack of cigarettes that were made in
Soviet Union in 60s (note the "Dukat-Moskva" logo). I don't remember if
there was that particular "Laika" brand, but the other details are
reproduced pretty well. The Russian text on the left side of the
cover is a play on the usual precaution about the harm of smoking: it says
"USSR's Min[istery] of Health warns: music is good for your health".
