I've smoked both interchangably for years. It all depends on what they have at the store, and the price. I still prefer Winstons to Cowboy Killers, though.
This ad was first seen in early 1955 (usually on "THE BOB CUMMINGS SHOW", which was sponsored by R.J. Reynolds, the makers of "Winston"). Most actors and actresses have appeared in TV commercials, early in their careers, to "pay the bills" and gain exposure and credits for their resumes...and Garner was no exception!
So nice to know that all these people were so concerned about the taste of their cigarettes. Like the worst thing they could do to you is not taste good.
If you take a moment to consider, good whiskey is supposed to taste good also, though nobody drinks whiskey for the taste, we drink it for the effect. We smoke for the effect too. If I want to smoke for the taste, I'll smoke a joint of sour diesel.
Good catch! I didn't realize this until you mentioned it. She was born in 1932 so she must have been in her early 20s. What an adorable lady who turned out to be such a wonderful actress.
I couldnt agree more about Ellen. I love her films. Even the small roles like in Harry & Tonto. She was the reason to sit thru the film "Twice in a Lifetime".
Not sure about Erin Moran (she was pretty young when Happy Days was on in COLOR. However, that IS a *very young* James Garner (Rockford Files, Maverick, etc.) who says "Honey, You won!"
Did you notice that lady who winked at the end of the commercial. Maybe it could have been a encrypted message saying that really, these cigarettes' may kill you! Those things gave my dad an early death.
Iron lungs not only weren't used by this point in history but also have never been used for smokers. Actually, cigarettes have more health benefits than weed so pick your poison I guess.
I've been smoking them for years. They still have the same effect, ie: delivering a metered dose of nicotine to my nicotine receptors, but I gotta admit that occasionally, every now and then, they taste like shit. Probably because RJ Reynolds sold out to some even bigger conglomerated clusterfuck of corporate fascism called "ITG Brands." I smoke because I smoke, not because some commercial told me to. And no silly anti-smoking commercial can make me quit. Either way, it's still up to me, not Uncle Sam! Folks need to realize that nobody can make anybody do or not do anything. The decision is always up to the individual, never to the government.
Winston,Marlboro,and Lark cigarettes all used to have their own unique flavor to their cigarettes, which made smoking actually fun. Unfortunatly the government put an end to that enjoyment by adding all these nauseating additiives & chemicals to the once fine textured tobacco causing even the most loved cigarette smoker to finally give them up. It wouldn't hurt to smoke an unblemished natural old fashioned Camel the it was originally intended to be smoked compared to the purposely poisened brands available today.
umm the government didn't put those additives in the cigarette companies do most commonly to make them not go out they add things like saltpeter you should smoke rollies
Speaking as a guy that's smoked for about half of his life, you're full of shit. Smokes still taste different between manufacturers and it's got nothing to do with additives put in by the government. It's the 20 different kinds of tobacco they use in different amounts. If anything, it's the other way around: Government BANNED adding flavouring to cigarrettes other than menthol.
scott pepper the government had absolutely nothing to do with those additives, the companies themselves put those things in to keep people hooked. Also, additives or no additives, smoking's still harmful as it fills your lungs up with tar. There's a reason they tell you to stay low in a house fire.
