MOKERS the world over are talking about the throat-easy mildness and the prime fresh- ness of Camel Cigarettes in the new Humidor Pack.

And day by day as this moisture disappears, the smoke from these cigarettes becomes harsher, hotter, more unkind to the smoker’s throat. Not so with Camels! The Humidor Pack is moisture proof and scaled air-tight at every point.
