Since early this morning, when I got an invitation to visit R. J. Reynolds Tobacco Co. factories, I've been in the midst of millions of Camel cigarettes. Man—the happiest idea you or I ever had as to the size of this Reynolds enter- prise, or the number of Camels manufac- tured daily, is simply piker-stuff! Wipe off the slate and start fresh! Why—Pete, it seemed to me like a couple of those ciga- rette-making machines could keep half the nation smoking Camels steadily—BUT — honest to goodness, there are hundreds of these machines batting out Camels at the rate of 27,000 an hour—EACH! Pete, you wouldn’t have to consult a guide book to know you were in the Camel fac- tories! The atmosphere is charged with that wonderful aroma you get when you open up a deck of Camels! And, you know, old elephant—you’ve had a trunk full! As the Camels dropped into the contain- ers I figured the delight each one would supply! And, how Camels mellow, mild body would hit the right spot and how Camels refreshing flavor would cheer up some smoker’s jaded appetite! And, each Camel free from any unpleasant cigaretty aftertaste or unpleasant cigaretty odor! And— Pete—1I'll have to lay off and light an- other Camel! Write you some more soon. Yours joyously
