It could be. I don't quite recall off the top of my head when cellophane was first used. Note that from 1918 until 1931, tax stamps did not have a “Series of” date printed directly on the stamp, itself. Rather, overprints were sometimes used. As a general rule of thumb, if a cigarette pack does not contain a “Series of” date or overprint, it will, in all likelihood, date from 1918-1931.
