EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage print captures a piece of history with its depiction of a Players Navy Cut Medium cigarettes rectangular counter card from 1930. The dark blue background and pale blue border create an elegant backdrop for the main focus of the image - an open pack of 10 Medium cigarettes, two protruding enticingly. The text on the card reads "Players // Please" inviting customers to indulge in this popular tobacco product. On the reverse side, we find a handwritten note instructing that the card should be returned to "ARCHIVES" at ADVTSG STORES, belonging to JPHN PLAYER & SON on Garden Street in Nottingham. A detached but surviving part of a support can also be seen, suggesting that this counter card was once proudly displayed upright. The photograph evokes nostalgia for a bygone era when cigarette advertising was prevalent and smoking was more socially acceptable. It offers glimpses into not only marketing strategies but also fashion choices as it features elements such as uniforms and costumes associated with sailing and military themes. With its naval imagery, including ships and sailors against a sea scape backdrop, this print transports us back to a time when navy-themed packaging appealed to consumers' sense of adventure and patriotism. It serves as both an intriguing historical artifact and an aesthetically pleasing piece of art capturing the essence of John Player & Sons' iconic brand.
