EDITORS COMMENTS
Capturing the essence of a bygone era, this intriguing print takes us back to 1970s California, where an anti-smoking campaign was making waves. The image features a grumpy-looking man, his face twisted into a comical gurning expression as he holds a cigarette between his fingers. Balston Howard skillfully captures the raw emotion and undeniable ugliness associated with smoking addiction. This photograph serves as a powerful reminder of the detrimental effects of tobacco consumption on both physical appearance and overall health. It symbolizes the struggle faced by countless individuals battling their addiction to cigarettes during that time period. As we gaze upon this snapshot from Memory Lane Prints, it becomes evident that behind every puff lies an unspoken story of vulnerability and self-destruction. The use of this image in an anti-smoking campaign must have undoubtedly sparked conversations across California communities. Its purpose was not only to shock viewers but also to serve as a wake-up call for those who were still under tobacco's grip. By showcasing the less glamorous side of smoking through this gurning man's visage, it aimed to discourage people from picking up or continuing such harmful habits. Decades later, this vintage print continues to resonate with its timeless message: smoking is anything but attractive or cool. It stands as a testament to society's ongoing battle against tobacco addiction and reminds us all that our choices today shape our future well-being.
