Don't wait for someone to urge you. Today
right now we ask you to sample this un
usual cigarette. Learn why it is causing so
much comment. Note its distinctive flavor, its
surprising and agreeable difference from any
cigarette you have ever smoked before.
We call this new cigarette Blue Boar, be
cause it is developed from America's favorite
fine tobacco, Blue Boar Pipe Mixture.
The secret of this new-type cigarette is in a
newly discovered method of blending. Blue
Boar tobacco is triply blended a new dis
covery in cigarette-making. It is a costlier,
slower process but worth it, as you'll agree.
The result of this simple discovery makes all
the difference in the world an entirely new
