Leading N.Y. Doctor tells his patients what to smoke! Filtered cigarette smoke is better for health.
Comments:
This Viceroy ad is made to look like a newspaper clipping, announcing that a “prominent physician” from New York recommends filtered cigarettes as “better for health.” The anonymous physician claims that Viceroy cigarettes are the healthiest choice due to their filter, which allegedly traps nicotine and tars so they “cannot reach mouth, throat or lungs!”
