Comments:

This advertisement appeals to Americans who wish to feel as elegant as British royalty. The ad features a couple floating on a giant cigarette, the woman providing the man with a proper-sized cigarette. The man is depicted as “The American Gentleman.” In this manner, an American forgets any guilt he has about not purchasing an American product; instead, he is enraptured by the prospect of entrancing women with his British sophistication.

Keywords:

British, couple, Female, Luxury, Male, romance, Royal, smart, sophisticated
