Advertised Camel Camels Cigarette Cigarettes Drugs Healthy Nerve Nerves Soothing Tobacco
EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage advertisement from 1934 features a striking image of a woman holding a cigarette, with the bold headline "Nerve-Soothing Cigarette." The ad promotes Camel cigarettes as being soothing to the nerves, targeting those who may be feeling stressed or anxious.
In the background, there is an illustration of a key juggler, symbolizing the idea of juggling multiple responsibilities and needing something to help calm the nerves. The use of imagery in this ad is clever and eye-catching, drawing viewers in with its unique design.
During this time period, smoking was often advertised as having health benefits and being seen as a way to relax and unwind. However, we now know that smoking can have serious negative effects on one's health.
Despite this knowledge, it is interesting to look back at historical advertisements like this one and see how products were marketed in the past. This print serves as a reminder of how attitudes towards tobacco have evolved over time.
Overall, this print captures a moment in history when cigarettes were promoted as not only fashionable but also beneficial for one's well-being. It offers insight into societal norms and beliefs surrounding smoking during the early 20th century.
