[/ Celebrated Screen Star
"Motion picture actors are under a great
strain—they need the comforting qualities
of a good cigarette. That is why most of us
smoke Lucky Strike. The marvelous toasted
flavor of Luckies brings complete enjoyment
and relaxation hut docs not hurt the throat
or it'ind. I am strong for Luckies—they are
the 'stars' of the cigarette picture. I would
rather have a Lucky after a meal than rich
pastries or desserts."

The modern common sense way—reach
for a Lucky instead of a fattening sweet.
Everyone is doing it—men keep healthy
and fit, women retain a trim figure.
Lucky Strike, the finest tobaccos, skilfully
blended, then toasted to develop a flavor
which is a delightful alternative for that
craving for fattening sweets.
Toasting frees Lucky Strike from impuri
ties. 20,679 physicians recognize this
when they say Luckies are less irritating
than other cigarettes. That’s why folks
says “It’s good to smoke Luckies.”

Lucky Strike.
