Comments:

Better not attempt any hairpin curves while smoking with one hand on the wheel. Even worse, he could be feeding his addition at a pit stop while gassing up. AAA racer, Walter Ader (1912-1982), provides the endorsement for this advertisement. He passed away from a heart attack in 1982. The ad combines the “Experience is the Best Teacher” campaign with the “More Doctors Smoke Camels” campaign.
