EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Advertising Archives takes us back to the golden era of 1930s America, where skiing and smoking were intertwined in a unique way. The image showcases an advertisement for Will's Gold Flake skiing cigarettes, capturing the essence of this bygone era. In this snapshot frozen in time, we are transported to a snowy mountain landscape where a skier elegantly glides down the slopes with effortless grace. But what sets this scene apart is the cigarette firmly held between their fingers, billowing smoke into the crisp winter air. It serves as a reminder that even amidst exhilarating sports activities like skiing, smoking was prevalent and considered fashionable during those times. The vintage aesthetic of this photograph adds to its allure, evoking nostalgia for an era when advertising took on different forms than it does today. This piece not only captures our attention but also offers insight into how marketing strategies have evolved over time. As we gaze upon this remarkable image from The Advertising Archives, we are reminded of how much society has changed since then - both in terms of attitudes towards smoking and advertising regulations. Yet it also allows us to appreciate the historical context and cultural significance behind such advertisements from yesteryears.
