EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the elegant world of the early 20th century with this advertisement for Kensitas cigarettes, as featured in the Illustrated London News in 1929. The image presents a footman, resplendent in his elaborate uniform, taking his employers small dog for a leisurely stroll through the picturesque grounds of a grand estate. The footman, ever the devoted servant, manages to sneak in a moment of relaxation for himself, as he takes a puff on a Kensitas cigarette, held delicately between his fingers. The dog, seemingly unaware of the footman's indulgence, gazes up at him with loyal affection. The serene atmosphere is further enhanced by the lush greenery and the sun casting dappled light through the trees. The Kensitas brand name and slogan, 'A Gentleman's Cigarette,' are prominently displayed, emphasizing the refined and sophisticated image the company aimed to convey. This advertisement not only showcases the elegance and luxury of the time but also highlights the role of the footman as a loyal and devoted servant, making it a charming and intriguing glimpse into the past.
