EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the essence of a bygone era, transporting us back to the year 1915 and the world of tobacco trade. The image showcases a gentleman at a cigarette counter, where a tobacconist attendant is in the process of lighting a cigarette for him. The scene takes place in a traditional tobacco shop, filled with an array of tobacco products, pipes, and cigars. The gentleman, dressed in fashionable attire, exudes an air of sophistication and elegance as he leans against the counter, seemingly lost in thought. The tobacconist, with a deft hand, skillfully lights the gentleman's cigarette, demonstrating the personalized service that was once a hallmark of such establishments. The advertisement for De Reszke cigarettes, prominently displayed on the counter, adds to the intrigue of the scene. The brand name, with its elegant script, speaks to the luxury and exclusivity of the product. The use of the image to promote the cigarettes underscores the popularity and appeal of smoking during this time period. The tobacco shop, with its warm, inviting atmosphere and the exchange between the gentleman and the tobacconist, provides a glimpse into the social and commercial interactions of the past. This photograph is a captivating reminder of the rich history of tobacco trade and the role that tobacconists played in shaping the way we consume tobacco products.
