Theme:
For your Throat
Collection:
Throat Scratch
Published:
1923
Brand:
Pall Mall
Manufacturer:
American Cigarette & Cigar Co.
Format:
Advertisement
Tobacco Type:
Accessory/Pharaphenalia
Quote:

Do away with scratchy throat smoke, through a cool smoking, self ejecting, throat protecting, cigarette holder.

Comments:

This advertisement is not for Pall Mall cigarettes, though it has a similar slogan: “Do away with scratchy throat.” The ad announces that the Klickit Cigarette Holder only allows 17% of the “volatile oils to come through” during smoking. Like the Pall Mall ads, it compares images of cigarettes burning to “prove” its point. What looks completely scientific at first glance is obviously complete nonsense.

Keywords:

Irritation, Mild, Throat
