Vintage 1944 Old Gold Cigarettes Print Ad Apple Honey The Fresher The Better
This is an Original, Vintage Print Magazine Advertisement from a large format type magazine from the year 1944 for "Old Gold Cigarettes". The Ad title is "The Fresher, The Better" subtitle being "Apple Honey Helps Keep Old Golds Fresh". Old Golds at the time were known because of the fact a mist of Apple "Honey", the nectar of luscious apples, was sprayed on their tobaccos which helped hold in the natural freshness. This Ad was their introduction of yet another new ingredient being added to the mix and that was "Latakia" (a costly imported leaf), which gave the cigarettes an even richer flavor. Also one will learn from this Ad that to do their part for the war and help save materials for war needs the cellophane jackets of the pack had been taken off for the summer of 1944.The picture in Ad shows a young Navy man getting fresh by stealing a kiss on the cheek from a young lady while he grabbing up an apple from her tray. This is a Black and White colored Advertisement, 13 3/4" Inches X 10" Inches in size. This is one of a few products being advertised in that decade that are still here today.One day these old ads will be gone and they don't make them like this anymore. The ads at the first part of the century were the best of the best no matter what was being advertised they drew your attention and held it. Not only the ads but many of the products or brands are also gone, changed names or been replaced. As the old print periodicals become more scarce so do the wonderful ads that gave life and color to those remembered times. They help us to recall and document past times. They are living reminders of who we used to be. They give us a snapshot in time of style, beliefs, activities and daily life different from our own. They are excellent for research needs for school or college,for framing to use as Decor in Home, Garage, Bar, Man Cave, Business, or great as Retro decor, Art Decor, Unique Gift, Junk Journals, Scrapbook, Vision Boards etc! Old ads have lots of detailed info about the product to help with research & many are a great substitute for expensive art, adding to your decor and making great conversation pieces. They all ship flat covered with plastic or poly bags in between sheets of flat cardboard covered with tissue paper and then packaged marked with stickers to handle with care.THIS IS ONE OF THE SALE LISTINGS FOR A MAGAZINE ARTICLE/AD THAT IS THE SAME AS ANY OF THE PRINT ADVERTISEMENTS I LIST.

IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OR CONCERNS PLEASE CONTACT ME BEFORE BUYING OR looking. I offer different shipping options from USPS, UPS and FED-EX. I try to offer a choice of different options on items, depending on how quick you want the item or what you are willing to pay. Anything with free shipping will be shipped my choice. Many items I list are fragile, collectibles, breakables etc. and will require special handling. If this is the case a handling fee ( between $1.00 - $3.00) for time, packaging,& special handling will be added in. I assure that this is one additional charge I try to avoid as much as possible due to high postage costs but sometimes it cant be avoided and I would guarantee you that very seldom will you see as much care taken in the handling of an order, I don't care if it 49 cents breakable and a 490.00 one it will get the same careful packaging and treatment as the expensive one, in fact sometimes I probably overpack but I hate to see people work so hard for something and then finally get it and it gets broken because someone took shortcut or got lazy.I will combine shipping costs if purchasing multiple items just contact me for a discounted rate. The address on your E-Bay account is the one I ship to, so make sure it is correct. I will not be responsible for misdirected shipping due to the wrong address on your account. Most all my listings say 3 BUSINESS DAYS HANDLING TIME ( MON-FRI ) So if it is 3 Business days handling time, it does not have to be at USPS till that 3rd Business day, but I generally ship most orders the next day. If by unforseen circumstances item is overdue, I will contact you with the reason & compensate you in some way for overdue shipping. If Free Shipping is offered it applies only to - THE 50 USA STATES - unless specifically stated otherwise. ALL ORDERS SHIPPING OUTSIDE OF USA WILL SHIP THRU E-BAYS INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING POLICY. I also reward every purchase made from me with a coupon or free gift sometimes both, the more purchases made the better the reward, in addition if customer remembers to leave feedback it will be rewarded.
