Looks like a 50 count box.
Appears that a tobacco advertising sticker or some sort has been applied to the side of the box.
The reflections off the Cigars make them appear as if they might be in cello
Box looks like it might be cardboard.

I'm thinking that they were probably just a box of inexpensive machine made drugstore cigars.

Looks to me like Palma Deluxe...and the last letters of the main label seems to be "oum" or "oux"...Tinder Box and Dutch Masters both made a "palma deluxe"...

Looking at it in photoshop and tweaking adjustments now...

I believe you are correct, it does appear to have the correct number of characters and basic shapes of the letters for the second word to be "Deluxe"

There is more written on the side of the box. Red letters, white outline, blue background. I can make out what I think appears to be "D" "U" "N". Looks like there might be anywhere from 2 to 4 additional proceeding letters which were covered up by the sticker.
