{"title":"Tobacciana - Tobacco \u0026 Cigarette History in Advertising","description":"\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThe American Tobacco Company alone during the 1920s and 1930s offered nearly 500 brands of tobacco. Advertisements were a way for brands to differentiate themselves from the mass of nearly identical products, so some of the most beautiful ads from our collection are those from the tobacciana category. Well-known artists like McClelland Barclay, Ludwig Hohlwein, and Alphonse Mucha were hired to create Art Deco or Art Nouveau illustrations, beautiful Oriental prints to showcase the popular Turkish cigarette blends, or images depicting London high-society puffing away with Pall Malls. The three large brands at the time were L\u0026amp;M's Chesterfield, R. J. Reynolds' Camels, and American's Lucky Strike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eAdvertising slogans were also extremely popular to persuade consumers to start smoking, or to switch brands. One of the most famous slogans in all of advertising history was used by Lucky Strike and geared toward women— “Reach for a Lucky Instead of a Sweet,” reminding women of the slimming benefits of tobacco smoking, and why a cigarette should be chosen over a piece of candy. This advertising technique would be widely used when marketing cigarettes toward women until the end of the 20\u003csup\u003eth\u003c\/sup\u003e century.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eThe decade following World War II was the biggest for the tobacco industry. Americans smoked more than they ever had before and ever have since. Cigarettes were included in soldier kits overseas, and back home people were supporting their troops and more than happy to support the purveyors of their cigarettes. In the case of Lucky Strike, for instance, a successful advertising campaign ran that swapped out the normally green label for a white one. The brand stated that the green label had “gone to war.” Sales increased 38% in six weeks time. After the war, soldiers returned home addicted to tobacco, women were more comfortable lighting up (smoking was no longer a man’s pleasure), and it had not yet been determined that smoking was bad for the health.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eWe carry cigarette advertisements up until the early 1970s, when health authorities worldwide warned about the side effects of smoking.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"1965-ad-american-tobacoo-co-antonio-y-cleopatra-cigar-original-advertising-090037-tm6-540","title":"1965 Ad American Tobacoo Co.

J. Reynolds created the packaged cigarette during a time when the masses rolled their own smoking tobacco. Camel Cigarettes came into almost immediate success after the tobacco company marketed the product in advance, rolling out ÒThe Camels are ComingÓ campaign that was meant as a teaser to pique the publicÕs interest in the product. The cigarettes were inspired by the Turkish paper it was rolled in and was meant to simulate exotic Egyptian cigarettes. The Camels contained American Burley, Bright leaf and Turkish Latakia with heavy additives to achieve the taste of the more expensive Turkish cigarettes. The flavor was marketed as a Turkish and Domestic blend, and was meant to be milder than other harsher smoking tobacco on the market. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eInitially, Camels featured ÒOld Joe,Ó a cartoon camel depicted in the likes of the Barnum and Bailey Circus camel. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTwo short years after Camels entered the market, the cigarette brand became the top selling U. S. Cigarette, as well as the first national brand to sell their product in all 48 states. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDuring World War I and World War II, soldiers received cigarettes in their war rations. When the war ended the soldiers returned addicted. In attempts to further increase cigarette popularity among the public, such tobacco companies as R. J. Reynolds would feature soldiers in their advertisements smoking cigarettes in the trenches. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe company promoted its cigarettes almost everywhere, including on billboards, in magazines and newspapers, on matchbook covers, on the sides of barns and in point-of-purchase retail store displays. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDuring the 1920s, Camel was among the ÒBig ThreeÓ cigarette companies that ruled the market, which also included Lucky Strike and L\u0026amp;MÕs Chesterfield cigarettes. By 1925, the camel brand controlled 40% of the market. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\nDuring the 1930s, when the power of radio was particularly strong in America, William Esty brought Camel into the mix and popularized a music series with Glen Gray, Bob Crosby, Xavier Cugat and Benny Goodman called \u003ci\u003eCamel Caravan\u003c\/i\u003e. From the 1930s until the 1950s, Camel sponsored other Esty radio productions, including the \u003ci\u003eBob Hawk Show\u003c\/i\u003e (also referred to as \u003ci\u003eThanks to the Yanks\u003c\/i\u003e), \u003ci\u003eMy Friend Irma\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eBlondie\u003c\/i\u003e.  \n\n\u003cp\u003eCamel also began to launch its fair share of propaganda during the 1930s, including its ÒHealthy NervesÓ campaign, which included images and endorsements from celebrity athletes, such as baseball player Mel Ott and tennis star Bill Tilden. The sports endorsers were meant to illustrate how Camels soothed unsteady nerves and made a person more capable, physically and mentally, to face any challenges life presented. A short time later, Camel launched its Òhealthful propertiesÓ campaign, which promised renewed energy. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDuring the mid-1940s, Camel claimed it had conducted an independent poll among thousands of physicians, which revealed that the majority of doctors who smoked preferred Camels over the other brands. The company also encouraged doctors to recommend their brand of slow burning Camels to patients who needed to adjustment their smoking habits. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDuring the 1950s television boom in the United States, Camel began sponsoring the NBC show, \u003ci\u003eCamel News Caravan\u003c\/i\u003e with John Cameron Swayze. The companyÕs marketing tactics continued to prove successful, and soon Camel ranked first in sales, followed by Lucky Strike and Chesterfield. \u003c\/p\u003e\n \n\u003cp\u003eBetween the 1950s and 1960s, the Tar Derby drove a large thorn into the sides of tobacco companies. One of the primary goals of the Tar Derby was to fight against heavy nicotine and tobacco tar cigarettes, as well as encourage the use of filtered cigarettes. Soon \u003ci\u003eConsumer Reports\u003c\/i\u003e began rating cigarettes by their nicotine level. However, not to be washed away by the antismoking groups, Camel swiftly marketed that its cigarettes contained 28% less nicotine than the other four leading cigarette brands. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn 1955, the FTC banned all references to health and digestion claims, as well as banned such terms as Òenergy,Ó ÒnervesÓ and Òdoctor.Ó Then, two years later, the Surgeon General released a statement linking smoking with lung cancer. Tobacco companies were forced to focus their advertising solely on taste and attempt to establish a long-lasting logo that would resonate among Americans. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eUpon the 75th anniversary of Camel, McCann-Erickson advertising agency decided to reintroduce Old Joe in the ÒSmooth CharacterÓ campaign. When government officials and antismoking groups requested the character be withdrawn from CamelÕs advertisements due to its powerful influence on children and teens, the company vehemently protested. However, upon pointing out that since JoeÕs reintroduction into CamelÕs advertisements, the underage market jumped to 61%, Camel was forced to permanently withdraw the character in 1997. \u003c\/p\u003e  \n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eInteresting Facts:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eNews broadcaster Edward R. Murrow, who became a widely recognized figure in America after World War II, smoked four packs of Camel cigarettes a day and would often publicly promote the brand. Murrow, not surprisingly, died of lung cancer at the age of 56. \u003c\/p\u003e \n\n\u003cp\u003eDuring the Tar Derby's push for filtered cigarettes, the micronite filter was introduced to block tar from entering the body, using asbestos. Major tobacco companies also began to fall in line with their own filtered brands, including R. J.

Camel Cigarettes came into almost immediate success after the tobacco company marketed the product in advance, rolling out ÒThe Camels are ComingÓ campaign that was meant as a teaser to pique the publicÕs interest in the product. The cigarettes were inspired by the Turkish paper it was rolled in and was meant to simulate exotic Egyptian cigarettes. The Camels contained American Burley, Bright leaf and Turkish Latakia with heavy additives to achieve the taste of the more expensive Turkish cigarettes.

By 1925, the camel brand controlled 40% of the market. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\nDuring the 1930s, when the power of radio was particularly strong in America, William Esty brought Camel into the mix and popularized a music series with Glen Gray, Bob Crosby, Xavier Cugat and Benny Goodman called \u003ci\u003eCamel Caravan\u003c\/i\u003e. From the 1930s until the 1950s, Camel sponsored other Esty radio productions, including the \u003ci\u003eBob Hawk Show\u003c\/i\u003e (also referred to as \u003ci\u003eThanks to the Yanks\u003c\/i\u003e), \u003ci\u003eMy Friend Irma\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eBlondie\u003c\/i\u003e.  \n\n\u003cp\u003eCamel also began to launch its fair share of propaganda during the 1930s, including its ÒHealthy NervesÓ campaign, which included images and endorsements from celebrity athletes, such as baseball player Mel Ott and tennis star Bill Tilden.

Soon \u003ci\u003eConsumer Reports\u003c\/i\u003e began rating cigarettes by their nicotine level.

When government officials and antismoking groups requested the character be withdrawn from CamelÕs advertisements due to its powerful influence on children and teens, the company vehemently protested. However, upon pointing out that since JoeÕs reintroduction into CamelÕs advertisements, the underage market jumped to 61%, Camel was forced to permanently withdraw the character in 1997. \u003c\/p\u003e  \n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eInteresting Facts:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eNews broadcaster Edward R.

J. Reynolds created the packaged cigarette during a time when the masses rolled their own smoking tobacco. Camel Cigarettes came into almost immediate success after the tobacco company marketed the product in advance, rolling out ÒThe Camels are ComingÓ campaign that was meant as a teaser to pique the publicÕs interest in the product. The cigarettes were inspired by the Turkish paper it was rolled in and was meant to simulate exotic Egyptian cigarettes. The Camels contained American Burley, Bright leaf and Turkish Latakia with heavy additives to achieve the taste of the more expensive Turkish cigarettes. The flavor was marketed as a Turkish and Domestic blend, and was meant to be milder than other harsher smoking tobacco on the market. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eInitially, Camels featured ÒOld Joe,Ó a cartoon camel depicted in the likes of the Barnum and Bailey Circus camel. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTwo short years after Camels entered the market, the cigarette brand became the top selling U. S. Cigarette, as well as the first national brand to sell their product in all 48 states. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDuring World War I and World War II, soldiers received cigarettes in their war rations. When the war ended the soldiers returned addicted. In attempts to further increase cigarette popularity among the public, such tobacco companies as R. J. Reynolds would feature soldiers in their advertisements smoking cigarettes in the trenches. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe company promoted its cigarettes almost everywhere, including on billboards, in magazines and newspapers, on matchbook covers, on the sides of barns and in point-of-purchase retail store displays. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDuring the 1920s, Camel was among the ÒBig ThreeÓ cigarette companies that ruled the market, which also included Lucky Strike and L\u0026amp;MÕs Chesterfield cigarettes. By 1925, the camel brand controlled 40% of the market. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\nDuring the 1930s, when the power of radio was particularly strong in America, William Esty brought Camel into the mix and popularized a music series with Glen Gray, Bob Crosby, Xavier Cugat and Benny Goodman called \u003ci\u003eCamel Caravan\u003c\/i\u003e. From the 1930s until the 1950s, Camel sponsored other Esty radio productions, including the \u003ci\u003eBob Hawk Show\u003c\/i\u003e (also referred to as \u003ci\u003eThanks to the Yanks\u003c\/i\u003e), \u003ci\u003eMy Friend Irma\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eBlondie\u003c\/i\u003e.  \n\n\u003cp\u003eCamel also began to launch its fair share of propaganda during the 1930s, including its ÒHealthy NervesÓ campaign, which included images and endorsements from celebrity athletes, such as baseball player Mel Ott and tennis star Bill Tilden. The sports endorsers were meant to illustrate how Camels soothed unsteady nerves and made a person more capable, physically and mentally, to face any challenges life presented. A short time later, Camel launched its Òhealthful propertiesÓ campaign, which promised renewed energy. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDuring the mid-1940s, Camel claimed it had conducted an independent poll among thousands of physicians, which revealed that the majority of doctors who smoked preferred Camels over the other brands. The company also encouraged doctors to recommend their brand of slow burning Camels to patients who needed to adjustment their smoking habits. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDuring the 1950s television boom in the United States, Camel began sponsoring the NBC show, \u003ci\u003eCamel News Caravan\u003c\/i\u003e with John Cameron Swayze. The companyÕs marketing tactics continued to prove successful, and soon Camel ranked first in sales, followed by Lucky Strike and Chesterfield. \u003c\/p\u003e\n \n\u003cp\u003eBetween the 1950s and 1960s, the Tar Derby drove a large thorn into the sides of tobacco companies. One of the primary goals of the Tar Derby was to fight against heavy nicotine and tobacco tar cigarettes, as well as encourage the use of filtered cigarettes. Soon \u003ci\u003eConsumer Reports\u003c\/i\u003e began rating cigarettes by their nicotine level. However, not to be washed away by the antismoking groups, Camel swiftly marketed that its cigarettes contained 28% less nicotine than the other four leading cigarette brands. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn 1955, the FTC banned all references to health and digestion claims, as well as banned such terms as Òenergy,Ó ÒnervesÓ and Òdoctor.Ó Then, two years later, the Surgeon General released a statement linking smoking with lung cancer. Tobacco companies were forced to focus their advertising solely on taste and attempt to establish a long-lasting logo that would resonate among Americans. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eUpon the 75th anniversary of Camel, McCann-Erickson advertising agency decided to reintroduce Old Joe in the ÒSmooth CharacterÓ campaign. When government officials and antismoking groups requested the character be withdrawn from CamelÕs advertisements due to its powerful influence on children and teens, the company vehemently protested. However, upon pointing out that since JoeÕs reintroduction into CamelÕs advertisements, the underage market jumped to 61%, Camel was forced to permanently withdraw the character in 1997. \u003c\/p\u003e  \n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eInteresting Facts:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eNews broadcaster Edward R.

A. Patterson of Richmond, Virginia, first introduced Lucky Strike chewing tobacco during the California Gold Rush. However, during the early 1900s, George Hill of the American Tobacco Company acquired the brand and quickly developed it into smoking tobacco to be used in pipes and cigarettes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDuring the years of World War I, AmericanÕs Lucky Strike, R. J. ReynoldÕs Camel and L\u0026amp;MÕs Chesterfield cigarettes proved to be the top three dominating forces in the smoking tobacco industry.  Because U. S. troopsÕ ration packages included cigarettes, the soldiers were commonly featured in cigarette advertisements, thus popularizing smoking among Americans. When the soldiers returned from war they returned addicted, and so the cigarette industry continued to rake in profits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eInitially, smoking among women, especially during the mid 19th century, was deemed effeminate and countries, including the United States, prohibited women from smoking in public. However, by the heavy hand of the tobacco industry, such laws were rendered unconstitutional and were withdrawn by about 1910.  Although, smoking among women was no longer banned, the cigarette companies were still not satisfied with the number of women who actually smoked.  The companies began to feature advertisements showing women handling cigarettes, though not actually physically smoking them.  Paving the way in a breakthrough promotional event, the American Tobacco Company hired public relations and advertising head Edward BernayÕs to address the stigma surrounding women and smoking. Bernays organized a campaign, which involved hiring several female models, dressed as Statues of Liberty, to smoke Lucky Strike cigarettes while marching down New York CityÕs famed Fifth Avenue during the 1929 Easter Parade.  The risky campaign proved to be a great success and scores of women took up smoking. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAround the same time as the legendary promotional parade tactic, Lucky Strike employed head of the Lord \u0026amp; Thomas advertising agency, Albert D. Lasker, who created an ad campaign aimed at women and weight loss.  The company soon began to obtain female celebrity endorsements.  Particularly notable was Lucky StrikeÕs weight loss ad campaign featuring Amelia Earhart that included the tagline, ÒFor a slender figureÑreach for a lucky instead of a sweet.Ó  However, the candy industry received such campaigns personally, thus spurring a PR war among the two. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBy 1930, Lucky Strike surpassed its head rival, Camel Cigarettes, through its various celebrity and sports athlete endorsed campaigns, which claimed or inferred its product would promote health, weight loss, success, vitality and glamour. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDuring World War II, Lucky Strike employed the slogan LS\/MFT (Lucky Strike Means Fine Tobacco), which played on the militaryÕs Morse code.  The cigarette company also initiated a sexually inferred ad campaign, which included the tagline ÒSo Round, So Firm, So Fully Packed.Ó The slogan was meant to insinuate that if the soldier was not able to find a women to lay with, he would be able to substitute her with a cigarette. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThough Lucky Strike dabbled in radio programming early on, they made a more prominent entrance into television sponsorship with Lord \u0026amp; ThomasÕs ÒYour Hit ParadeÓ and the \"Jack Benny Program.\" \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAround 1964, Robert ÒBrand a MonthÓ Walker became the president of American Tobacco.  Walker made it his mission to create Lucky Strike cigarettes for every market niche possible, which included employing such tactics as introducing king size, luxury length, menthol and about five other varieties. Walker heavily promoted the campaigns that were greeted with success and quickly disposed of those less successful. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Lucky Strike brand began its demise during the 1970s, upon the rise of lower tar and nicotine brands, as well as damaging health reports from such acclaimed sources as \u003ci\u003eConsumer Reports\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eReaderÕs Digest\u003c\/i\u003e. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eWorld War II Lies to Target Women:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn 1942, Lucky StrikeÕs signature dark green package was changed to white.  The company claimed copper was used in making the green hue, and that the compound was desperately needed for the war.  However, copper was never used in making the green color, nor did the change have anything to do with the war.

J. Reynolds created the packaged cigarette during a time when the masses rolled their own smoking tobacco. Camel Cigarettes came into almost immediate success after the tobacco company marketed the product in advance, rolling out ÒThe Camels are ComingÓ campaign that was meant as a teaser to pique the publicÕs interest in the product. The cigarettes were inspired by the Turkish paper it was rolled in and was meant to simulate exotic Egyptian cigarettes. The Camels contained American Burley, Bright leaf and Turkish Latakia with heavy additives to achieve the taste of the more expensive Turkish cigarettes. The flavor was marketed as a Turkish and Domestic blend, and was meant to be milder than other harsher smoking tobacco on the market. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eInitially, Camels featured ÒOld Joe,Ó a cartoon camel depicted in the likes of the Barnum and Bailey Circus camel. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTwo short years after Camels entered the market, the cigarette brand became the top selling U. S. Cigarette, as well as the first national brand to sell their product in all 48 states. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDuring World War I and World War II, soldiers received cigarettes in their war rations. When the war ended the soldiers returned addicted. In attempts to further increase cigarette popularity among the public, such tobacco companies as R. J. Reynolds would feature soldiers in their advertisements smoking cigarettes in the trenches. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe company promoted its cigarettes almost everywhere, including on billboards, in magazines and newspapers, on matchbook covers, on the sides of barns and in point-of-purchase retail store displays. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDuring the 1920s, Camel was among the ÒBig ThreeÓ cigarette companies that ruled the market, which also included Lucky Strike and L\u0026amp;MÕs Chesterfield cigarettes. By 1925, the camel brand controlled 40% of the market. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\nDuring the 1930s, when the power of radio was particularly strong in America, William Esty brought Camel into the mix and popularized a music series with Glen Gray, Bob Crosby, Xavier Cugat and Benny Goodman called \u003ci\u003eCamel Caravan\u003c\/i\u003e. From the 1930s until the 1950s, Camel sponsored other Esty radio productions, including the \u003ci\u003eBob Hawk Show\u003c\/i\u003e (also referred to as \u003ci\u003eThanks to the Yanks\u003c\/i\u003e), \u003ci\u003eMy Friend Irma\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eBlondie\u003c\/i\u003e.  \n\n\u003cp\u003eCamel also began to launch its fair share of propaganda during the 1930s, including its ÒHealthy NervesÓ campaign, which included images and endorsements from celebrity athletes, such as baseball player Mel Ott and tennis star Bill Tilden. The sports endorsers were meant to illustrate how Camels soothed unsteady nerves and made a person more capable, physically and mentally, to face any challenges life presented. A short time later, Camel launched its Òhealthful propertiesÓ campaign, which promised renewed energy. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDuring the mid-1940s, Camel claimed it had conducted an independent poll among thousands of physicians, which revealed that the majority of doctors who smoked preferred Camels over the other brands. The company also encouraged doctors to recommend their brand of slow burning Camels to patients who needed to adjustment their smoking habits. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDuring the 1950s television boom in the United States, Camel began sponsoring the NBC show, \u003ci\u003eCamel News Caravan\u003c\/i\u003e with John Cameron Swayze. The companyÕs marketing tactics continued to prove successful, and soon Camel ranked first in sales, followed by Lucky Strike and Chesterfield. \u003c\/p\u003e\n \n\u003cp\u003eBetween the 1950s and 1960s, the Tar Derby drove a large thorn into the sides of tobacco companies. One of the primary goals of the Tar Derby was to fight against heavy nicotine and tobacco tar cigarettes, as well as encourage the use of filtered cigarettes. Soon \u003ci\u003eConsumer Reports\u003c\/i\u003e began rating cigarettes by their nicotine level. However, not to be washed away by the antismoking groups, Camel swiftly marketed that its cigarettes contained 28% less nicotine than the other four leading cigarette brands. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn 1955, the FTC banned all references to health and digestion claims, as well as banned such terms as Òenergy,Ó ÒnervesÓ and Òdoctor.Ó Then, two years later, the Surgeon General released a statement linking smoking with lung cancer. Tobacco companies were forced to focus their advertising solely on taste and attempt to establish a long-lasting logo that would resonate among Americans. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eUpon the 75th anniversary of Camel, McCann-Erickson advertising agency decided to reintroduce Old Joe in the ÒSmooth CharacterÓ campaign. When government officials and antismoking groups requested the character be withdrawn from CamelÕs advertisements due to its powerful influence on children and teens, the company vehemently protested. However, upon pointing out that since JoeÕs reintroduction into CamelÕs advertisements, the underage market jumped to 61%, Camel was forced to permanently withdraw the character in 1997. \u003c\/p\u003e  \n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eInteresting Facts:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eNews broadcaster Edward R.

C., the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, the Art Institute of Chicago, the Artists of America Denver Rotary Club, the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the National Academy of Design and the Whitney Museum of American Art. Hirsch also had some of his works exhibited at the 1939 New York WorldÕs Fair. He was affiliated with the Artists of America, the WPA Federal Arts Project, Associated American Artists and the National Academy of Design. He received his formal art education at the Philadelphia Museum School of Industrial Art and the Art Students League of New York, at which he later served as an instructor.

A. Patterson of Richmond, Virginia, first introduced Lucky Strike chewing tobacco during the California Gold Rush. However, during the early 1900s, George Hill of the American Tobacco Company acquired the brand and quickly developed it into smoking tobacco to be used in pipes and cigarettes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDuring the years of World War I, AmericanÕs Lucky Strike, R. J. ReynoldÕs Camel and L\u0026amp;MÕs Chesterfield cigarettes proved to be the top three dominating forces in the smoking tobacco industry.  Because U. S. troopsÕ ration packages included cigarettes, the soldiers were commonly featured in cigarette advertisements, thus popularizing smoking among Americans. When the soldiers returned from war they returned addicted, and so the cigarette industry continued to rake in profits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eInitially, smoking among women, especially during the mid 19th century, was deemed effeminate and countries, including the United States, prohibited women from smoking in public. However, by the heavy hand of the tobacco industry, such laws were rendered unconstitutional and were withdrawn by about 1910.  Although, smoking among women was no longer banned, the cigarette companies were still not satisfied with the number of women who actually smoked.  The companies began to feature advertisements showing women handling cigarettes, though not actually physically smoking them.  Paving the way in a breakthrough promotional event, the American Tobacco Company hired public relations and advertising head Edward BernayÕs to address the stigma surrounding women and smoking. Bernays organized a campaign, which involved hiring several female models, dressed as Statues of Liberty, to smoke Lucky Strike cigarettes while marching down New York CityÕs famed Fifth Avenue during the 1929 Easter Parade.  The risky campaign proved to be a great success and scores of women took up smoking. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAround the same time as the legendary promotional parade tactic, Lucky Strike employed head of the Lord \u0026amp; Thomas advertising agency, Albert D. Lasker, who created an ad campaign aimed at women and weight loss.  The company soon began to obtain female celebrity endorsements.  Particularly notable was Lucky StrikeÕs weight loss ad campaign featuring Amelia Earhart that included the tagline, ÒFor a slender figureÑreach for a lucky instead of a sweet.Ó  However, the candy industry received such campaigns personally, thus spurring a PR war among the two. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBy 1930, Lucky Strike surpassed its head rival, Camel Cigarettes, through its various celebrity and sports athlete endorsed campaigns, which claimed or inferred its product would promote health, weight loss, success, vitality and glamour. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDuring World War II, Lucky Strike employed the slogan LS\/MFT (Lucky Strike Means Fine Tobacco), which played on the militaryÕs Morse code.  The cigarette company also initiated a sexually inferred ad campaign, which included the tagline ÒSo Round, So Firm, So Fully Packed.Ó The slogan was meant to insinuate that if the soldier was not able to find a women to lay with, he would be able to substitute her with a cigarette. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThough Lucky Strike dabbled in radio programming early on, they made a more prominent entrance into television sponsorship with Lord \u0026amp; ThomasÕs ÒYour Hit ParadeÓ and the \"Jack Benny Program.\" \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAround 1964, Robert ÒBrand a MonthÓ Walker became the president of American Tobacco.  Walker made it his mission to create Lucky Strike cigarettes for every market niche possible, which included employing such tactics as introducing king size, luxury length, menthol and about five other varieties. Walker heavily promoted the campaigns that were greeted with success and quickly disposed of those less successful. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Lucky Strike brand began its demise during the 1970s, upon the rise of lower tar and nicotine brands, as well as damaging health reports from such acclaimed sources as \u003ci\u003eConsumer Reports\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eReaderÕs Digest\u003c\/i\u003e. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eWorld War II Lies to Target Women:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn 1942, Lucky StrikeÕs signature dark green package was changed to white.  The company claimed copper was used in making the green hue, and that the compound was desperately needed for the war.  However, copper was never used in making the green color, nor did the change have anything to do with the war.  In truth, the company made the switch to appeal to women, as much as men.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eAstonishing Fact:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \n\u003cp\u003eIt is said that sales increased by 300% during the first year of the Lucky Strike weight loss campaign. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCopyright 2016, Period Paper LLC\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKeywords specific to this image:  Vintage Advertising\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTM1A5B24C48 \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Period Paper","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":33470726609,"sku":"030594_TM1_451","price":43.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1021\/8371\/products\/TM1_451_166f2564-8025-4a94-aca3-ef0e19604809.jpg?v=1571708091"},{"product_id":"1926-vintage-ad-herbert-tareyton-cigarettes-man-monocle-original-advertising-017119-mix4-093","title":"1926 Vintage Ad Herbert Tareyton Cigarettes Man Monocle - ORIGINAL MIX4","description":"This is an original 1926 two-color print ad for Herbert Tareyton Cigarettes.\u003cp\u003eCONDITION\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis 85+ year old Item is rated Very Fine.
