EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this print from 1916-1926, showcasing the iconic Players Navy Cut Tobacco and Cigarettes counter card. Transporting us to a bygone era, the image depicts five sailors dressed in elegant eighteenth-century attire, taking a well-deserved break around a rustic table. The scene is brimming with intriguing details - one sailor proudly sports a parrot perched on his shoulder while a loyal dog rests faithfully at his feet. All five sailors are seen indulging in their pipes, enveloping the air with fragrant tobacco smoke. Two of them even hold mugs, perhaps filled with warm spirits to accompany their leisurely moment. In the background lies a bustling dockyard adorned with majestic ships moored along its shores. The sight of these vessels hints at the naval heritage that Nottingham holds dear. Amidst it all stands two men; one intently gazes through his telescope, surveying the horizon for any signs of adventure or impending voyages. This enchanting snapshot not only captures an era steeped in history but also serves as an ode to Nottingham's rich maritime past. A testament to craftsmanship and quality, this advertisement by John Player and Sons evokes nostalgia for simpler times when pipe smoking was an art form and camaraderie among sailors was cherished above all else.
