"Harvey's got a good thing going . . ."
"You've come a long way baby"
"Winston tastes good, like a cigarette should" (and we would continue, "No flavor, no taste, just a fifty-cent waste!" And the English teacher would explain it should be "as" not "like.")
"Come to where, the flavor is"

Why do I, a non-smoker, remember these so well?

Lucky Strike - "It's Toasted!" Here's their Christmas TV ad from the fifties-

And for a real hoot, here is a Chesterfield Christmas commercial from a very early television show (late 1940's) featuring a panel of "professional smokers."

Thank you Mr. Mollett. I kind of figured they had to be known characters, but they
were beyond my abilities of recognition, being a "random Mexican" myself. Lol
Thanks buddy!

Item in question
I failed to realize that although they mentioned each other's name,
it really was who they were portraying. Smile

I posted this before, but it fits here so I'll repost.

I can't find the actual commercial. But Lark cigarettes used to have a commercial where a flatbed truck would drive past people while a person in the back of the truck would hold up a sign that read; "Show us your Lark." (Amazingly, everyone they passed just happened to have a pack of Lark cigarettes!)

That commercial inspired this which is my favorite commercial. (And one I remember from my childhood.)

Ah yes, to the tune of The William Tell Overture.
