“It’s a Boy!…His life expectancy is brighter, and longer by 15 years – thanks to medicine’s “men in white.”
Comment: One suspects that this proud dad, hat in hand, has blue ribboned cigars for his friends and candy cigarettes for his older children. The ad lists figures which indicate an increase in life expectancy, attributed solely to the work of doctors. With the copy text below touting the doctors’ supposed support of the cigarette, a connection is made between life expectancy – or at least good health – and smoking. It is ironic, of course, that the average long-term smoker loses 10 years or more of expected lifespan.
