Smoke

"We didn't know that it was bad for us."
Because Big Tobacco brainwashed you with these ads!
These relics are hilarious. From an exhibition Not a Cough in a Carload: Images from the Tobacco Industry Campaign to Hide the Hazards of Smoking.
Plenty more to browse on their website.
Seemed like everyone endorsed cigarettes: movie stars, babies, nurses, dentists, physicians, athletes ...

Below is the US Post Office's new stamp to commemorate BD. The portrait is from ALL ABOUT EVE. What's missing between her fingers?
