Quote:
Alice, don't let these rehearsals get you down. All you need is confidence. Here, have a Camel!Alice: oh, Mr. Ross, I'm about ready to quit the show and cigarettes too! My voice seems to have let me down.Lanny: I was about ready to give up smoking myself- until I changed to Camels. Why don't you make the Camel 30-day mildness test?
Comments:
This advertisement, designed in the style of a comic book, targets young women and teens who have low self-esteem. The young singer quickly becomes famous after she switches to Camels. Lanny Ross (1906-1988), a Julliard-trained singer/songwriter, recommends Camels for mildness and for a confidence boost. Ross passed away after suffering from two strokes in 1988.
