The history of Modiano began in 1868 when David Saul Modiano, born in Greece moved to Trieste, Italy and around about 1889 began to manufacture cigarette papers. In europe at this time there was a considerable demand for cigarette papers and tubes and the company he set up began to manufacture them with different markings, Over several hundred brand names are recorded but most notable is the Club brand. The Graphic Art was entrusted to Giuseppe Sigon (1864-1922). The company had factories in Trieste and Bologna and many of the papers were produced for the european and middle eastern markets. Many of the booklets were produced in Austria.
