Whimsical Cigarette Ad Posters Illustrated by Juan Carlos Huergo in the Early 20th Century
Early 20th-century cigarette ads glamorized smoking as a symbol of sophistication, elegance, and modernity, using stylish imagery and catchy slogans like “More doctors smoke Camels” and “It’s Toasted” to imply quality and safety.
These advertisements, often featuring celebrities, marketed smoking as part of a glamorous lifestyle, making it appear desirable and socially acceptable despite the lack of awareness about the health risks involved.
I don’t support smoking. If you smoke, quit.
