EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage print captures a moment in time from 1965, showcasing the allure of Richmond Virginia Tipped Cigarettes. The large rectangular counter-card features an intriguing image of a man's profile, his face partially obscured by a cigarette held between his lips. Beside him stands an elegant woman with a captivating smile, holding her own cigarette in her right hand. In the background, another pair of hands holds out a matchbox while lighting one of their cigarettes. Adding to the visual composition is a color photograph superimposed on top of the image - an open packet of 20 Richmonds. This juxtaposition symbolizes the transition from traditional smoking habits to modernity. The text at the top reads "light up a Richmond // strike it // rich" inviting viewers to indulge in this luxurious tobacco experience. At the bottom, we see "4 3" as additional information related to this advertisement. Although this photo was taken for advertising purposes by John Player and Sons (not mentioned here), it also serves as a nostalgic reminder of simpler times spent outdoors enjoying nature's beauty. It transports us back to Nottingham's countryside where parks provided serene settings for individuals seeking relaxation or socialization amidst clouds of smoke
