How good is it?”—That’s it!
ABOUT anything and everything they
-*** buy? smart shoppers like to ask one
question — "How good is it?”
Chesterfield welcomes smokers who buy
their cigarettes that way.
* * •
*' ^bacco buyers are smart shoppers,
too. They shop for the ripest, mild
est, sweetest-tasting leaf that grows. And
they won’t take anything else.
‘'How good” arc Chesterfields? Well,
consider their blending.
Blended and cross-blended... not merely
mixed together. Blended first by crops and
countries... then cross-blended again and
again... to produce a flavor and aroma that
are Chesterfield’s alone.
That’s how we get that better taste...
that’s why Chesterfields are milder. Even
the paper they’re rolled in is the whitest,
cleanest and purest that money can buy.
And the package... clean, bright, fresh
looking ... see how easily it opens, yet how
tightly it’s sealed.
» * »
OPEN a package. Note the aroma ...
delicious foretaste of pleasure ahead.
Now—pull out a Chesterfield... round,
firm, well-filled.
« e <r
"TTOW good is it?” Light up ... then
A A you tell us!
Milder? Right! Taste better? You bet they
do! They’re pure, too—and they certainly do
satisfy!
Good... they’ve got to be good! There’s value
here. We know, because we put it in ... and
you’ll smoke it out with every one you light.
