Doubtless, you’ve guessed that the Droodle
at the right is: Careless two-gun cowboy
enjoying better-tasting Lucky while wait
ing in ambush. Lots of other two-gun cow
boys—and many millions of no-gun folks—
agree that Luckies taste better. Students,
for example, prefer Luckies to all other
brands, according to the latest, biggest
coast-to-coast college survey. Once again,
the No. 1 reason is that Luckies taste
better. They taste better because Lucky
Strike is the cigarette of fine tobacco . . .
and “It's Toasted” to taste better. “It's
Toasted”—the famous Lucky Strike proc
ess-tones up Luckies’ light, mild, good
tasting tobacco to make it taste even
better. So, enjoy the better-tasting ciga
rette . . . Lucky Strike.
