EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this vintage print of a Players Navy Cut Medium Tobacco and Cigarettes rectangular counter card from 1928. The centerpiece of the card is a proud sailor, his head and shoulders prominently displayed at the top center. His hat ribbon proudly reads 'H. M. S. INVINCIBLE', evoking images of strength and bravery on the high seas. Surrounding the sailor are packs of Medium cigarettes and tobacco in various sizes, each labeled with their quantity and price below. At the bottom, four tins of Medium cigarettes are showcased, again available in different sizes with corresponding prices beneath them. The text on the card highlights enticing offers for customers: '10 for 6d', '20 for 11 1/2d', '50 for 2/5' and '100 for 4/8'. An air-tight tin option is also mentioned along with its pricing details. This piece captures an era when smoking was not only fashionable but also associated with adventure and sophistication. The blue decorated tin design adds an artistic touch to this advertisement that promises satisfaction to all who choose Players Navy Cut products. With its hanging loop on the reverse side, this print serves as a nostalgic reminder of Nottingham's rich history in advertising, uniformed costumes, sailing ships, naval traditions, and John Player & Sons' contribution to tobacco culture.
