IF YOU'RE UP A TREE about what cig
arette to smoke, there’s a pleasant
point of view in the Droodle at left.
It’s titled: Davy Crockett enjoying
better-tasting Lucky as seen by b’ar
in tree. Luckies taste better for a
hatful of reasons. First of all, Lucky
Strike means fine tobacco. Then, that
thar tobacco is toasted. “It's Toasted”
—the famous Lucky Strike process—
tones up Luckies’ light, mild, good
tasting tobacco to make it taste even
better... cleaner, fresher, smoother.
So set your sights on better taste
light up a Lucky yourself!
