A gorgeous woman stares out from a Lucky Strike ad with a cigarette in hand, saying “Luckies Please!” or “I’m a Lucky Girl.” Some are glamorous actresses, like Kay Francis and Jean Harlow; some are poster girls like Rosalie Nelson, and some are born from imagination such as “Miss America” and the “Christy girl.” Each of these ads uphold standards of beauty, and seem to hint that a woman who smokes a Lucky will look like them too.
