HAT’S OUR IDEA in making CAMELS — the Quality Cigarette. Why, just buy Camels and look at the package! It’s the best packing science has devised to keep cigarettes fresh and full flavored for your taste. Heavy paper out- side—secure foil wrapping inside and the revenue stamp over the end to seal the package and keep it air-tight, And note this! There’s nothing flashy about the Camel package. No extra- wrappings that do not improve the smoke. Not a cent of needless expense that must come out of the quality of the tobacco, Camels wonderful and exclusive Quality wins on merit alone. Because, men smoke Camels who want the taste and fragrance of the finest tobaccos, expertly blended. Men smoke Camels for Camels smooth, refreshing mildness’ and their freedom from cigaretty aftertaste, , Camels are made for men who think for themselves. R. 3. REYNOLDS TOBACCO COMPANY,
