== In popular culture ==

=== Novels ===
The Camel pack is featured prominently in Tom Robbins's 1980 novel ''Still Life with Woodpecker'', billed as "a love story that happens inside a pack of cigarettes". The book's artwork is modelled after a pack of Camels, and the package artwork and history are discussed extensively in the book. It mentions that a pack of Camels is the best friend you have in prison.


=== Music ===
Country singer Ferlin Husky recorded a song titled ''Eli The Camel'' which is about a camel on the front of a cigarette packet.

The cover of the album ''Mirage'' by the band Camel resembles the cigarette packaging.

A pack of Camel Filters appears among other paraphernalia on the cover of Brian Eno's first solo album ''Here Come the Warm Jets''.

A stylized drawing of the Camel cigarette pack is used as the front cover of the 1971 album ''Choice Quality Stuff/Anytime'' by the San Francisco psychedelic band It's a Beautiful Day.⏎
