Taking a Break
October 27th, 2007 by CindyI am taking a little break from all the happenings this week: the Candidate’s Night; the campaigning and my daughter with her “baby” from her health class to run this old cigarette commercial from the 1950’s.
 If you are a baby boomer, the minute this commercial starts playing, you will be able to sing it, even after all these years. It’s amazing how commericals stay in your mind and how back then, cigarettes were treated like candy.
Some commercials even said they were healthy for God’s sake. I am trying to find that old cigarette commercial that by today’s standards was not only bias and dishonest but racist on top of it. I can’t remember the brand but hopefully it will come to me. I remember it used to air during Bonanza, my favorite western show on Sunday night on NBC.
Well here it is:
Old 1950's Winston Cigarette Commercial
After the main commercial plays, you can click on some other old cigarette commercials that will pop up on the bottom of the screen.
