Provides for a penalty of $10 per package for the possession of a package of cigarettes that is not tax stamped or that is improperly tax stamped, up to and including 100 packages possessed (now, no penalty for the first 100 packages possessed). Provides that the possession with intent to sell up to 100 such packages is a Class A misdemeanor for the first offense and a Class 4 felony for each subsequent offense. Provides that when cigarettes are acquired for use in this State by a person who did not pay the tax, within 30 days (now, 3 days) the person shall file a return with the Department declaring possession and paying the tax.
