EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the roaring 1920s with this print of an iconic advertisement for Players Navy Cut cigarettes. The advert, originally featured in The Graphic during Christmas of 1928, showcases the allure and sophistication associated with smoking during that era. In this striking image, a dashing sailor dressed in a pristine naval uniform proudly dons his cap while holding a box of Players Navy Cut cigarettes. His confident gaze and relaxed posture exude an air of masculinity and adventure. The vibrant colors used in the ad draw attention to both the sailor's face and the distinctive logo on the cigarette box. This advertisement not only promotes a popular brand but also captures elements of British patriotism intertwined with religious symbolism. With its subtle reference to Christianity through the sailor's headdress resembling a halo, it evokes notions of protection and divine guidance amidst times of war. As we admire this piece from our collection, we are transported back to an era when smoking was seen as glamorous and sophisticated. It serves as a reminder of how advertising has evolved over time while reflecting societal values prevalent during that period.
