Comments:
Johnny Roventini (1910-1998), the famous Philip Morris spokesperson, grins proudly as he offers a pen to a beautiful young woman he calls Miss Priddy. The false health claims abound in this ad: According to the ad, “eminent doctors” agree that Philip Morris cigarettes are less irritating than the other three leading brands. The large text insists that “you can have true smoking pleasure without penalties.”
