Caballero (cigarette)
Caballero is a Dutch brand of unfiltered cigarettes owned and manufactured by British American Tobacco. ''Caballero'' is the Spanish word for knight.

Cigarette
A cigarette is a narrow cylinder containing a combustible material, typically tobacco, that is rolled into thin paper for smoking. The cigarette is ignited at one end, causing it to smolder; the resulting smoke is orally inhaled via the opposite end. Cigarette smoking is the most common method of tobacco consumption.

During the period of 1946 until 1996, posters made by the Dutch artist were put on Dutch railway stations featuring the ''"Belinda Cigarette Girl"'' (''"Sigarettenmeisje van Belinda"'' in Dutch), along with other known brands at the time like Droste cocoa, the Hulshof purse company and the ''"Zwarte Beertjes"'' (''"Black Bears"'') adverts of Dutch artist, illustrator and graphic designer Dick Bruna.
