EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the roaring twenties with this charming print featuring caricatures of cricketers endorsing Advert's Great Player's Medium Navy Cut cigarettes. Dated back to 1926, this vintage advertisement showcases the playful and humorous side of the sport's beloved figures. The image captures the essence of the era with its intricate detail and comic flair. The central focus of the print is a packet of Advert's Great Player's Medium Navy Cut cigarettes, surrounded by a lively assembly of cricketers. Each player is depicted in a playful and exaggerated manner, adding a touch of humor to the advertisement. Some are shown in action, with bats in hand and mid-batting or bowling poses, while others are seen engaging in light-hearted moments on the field. The print also includes a set of collectible cards featuring the caricatured cricketers, adding an interactive element to the advertisement. The cards, which can be ripped from the print and kept as keepsakes, further enhance the overall appeal of this unique piece. The design of the cigarette packet is also noteworthy, with its plain cork tip and navy blue color scheme reflecting the classic style of the time. The use of the cricket bat as a graphic element on the packet adds to the sporty theme, making this print a must-have for cricket enthusiasts and collectors of vintage advertising. This print by Terry Parker is a delightful reminder of the lighter side of cricket in the 1920s, offering a glimpse into the past while also showcasing the timeless appeal of the game.
