Coates Studios. adv, No “Whispering Campaign” can withstand the light of this truth: Lucky Strikes are made from the finest of fine tobaccos—the cream of the crop. Lucky Strikes alone are toasted because toasting is a secret process. 20,679 physicians definitely state that toasting removes impurities. Then, too, it adds to the flavor and prevents throat irritation. Therefore, without fear of contradiction, we can say truthfully: “No cigarette, regardless of price, is as good as Luckies | whether manufactured by The American Tobacco Com. pany or by any other company.” (SIGNED) President, The American Tobacco Company, Incorporated “It's toasted” No Throat Irritation- No Cough.
