[doctortabby]

The bass line in this jingle rocks!

[inkey2]

[mewhor]

Wow! She even had a cigarette voice!

[8smellyjelly8]

10 years later they were dead wondering why did they start smoking

[34airflow]

It's surreal to see TV commercials for cigarettes today.

[laughingtiger123]

She is one sexy woman.

[Nebrox]

Kent Micronite cigarette filter used crocidolite, a form of asbestos, from 1952 until at least mid-1956.

Nothing like copping a double whammy of cancer causing substances.

[tranurse]

my dad smoked kents. not menthols though. he died of a massive myocardial infarction in 1996. he was 52

[mercmarc]

@tranurse same here

[tranurse]

@TheJomogogo well, he had had rheumatic fever as a child. he wasn't a wimp though. he was a professional gambler/construction contractor. his daddy smoked a pipe, and died at the age of 90.

[Guardian223]

After reading all these nasty wasty comments I think I need to go to confession.

[jnutzz]

Damn, she has a hella smokers voice!!

[pyromonster99]

fiberglass tastes cool

[well2doo]

Dam, that chick's got it all together.....I won't be able to sleep tonite thinking of her all together hot bod.....S O B..........

[petriukas20]

she doesnt know how to smoke

[jsilence418]

Look at that beautiful, sunshine, what a day, too bad she can't enjoy the day, BECAUSE SHE DIED FROM SMOKING !!!!

[JaleelJohanson62]

@jsilence418 I didn't see her die in the video on THAT day, but she could say your freedom to choose what you want to do died on THIS day... Now shut the fuck up you stupid little socialist moron.. LOL

[jsilence418]

@JaleelJohanson62 hey jaleel shouldn't you be down at welfare trying to get your 15 kids back!

[JaleelJohanson62]

@jsilence418 Yes. Can you help? 12 of them are your half siblings because I fucked your mother as many times. LOL

[jsilence418]

@JaleelJohanson62 How can you fuck anything without a cock ? it's probably still up your old mans' ass !

[JaleelJohanson62]

@jsilence418 Unless you're saying your mother has a cock, I've already answered this question dipshit...

[jsilence418]

@JaleelJohanson62 No welfare ,the only mother with a cock is the one you were a bitch for in jail .

[jsilence418]

@JaleelJohanson62 sorry my mother only fucks people that have at least gone to high school and ocassionally bathe .

[JaleelJohanson62]

@jsilence418 Since you say 'gone to high school' and not graduated and then mention that they 'ocassionally bathe', it's becoming clear how a dolt like you was spawned. I make no claim to you whatsoever. LOL

[jsilence418]

@JaleelJohanson62 Hey welfare, is the jail/welfare, jail/welfare cycle a tradition with you dirtnecks? like how your momma taught you to suck cock so you could " git along with folk' lol

[jsilence418]

@JaleelJohanson62 Hey welfare even a dirt bag like you can afford deodorant, buy your mother a stick for her rotten old cunt, she may get more customers than just you.

[JaleelJohanson62]

@jsilence418 Which 'Hey welfare' post do you want to go with? They're both lame, but go ahead and choose moron... LOL

[reymatt76]

Ultimate freshness of menthol

(CLAP! CLAP!)

Ultimate taste of a Kent

(CLAP! CLAP!)

They're all together!

[Sheri451]

Micronite Filter was really a asbestos filter!

[reymatt76]

I still want to know what was actually in that cigarette, because that hit she took was massive. Like gravity bong massive. Perhaps it was cold outside to highlight Kent's brisk breezy flavor? I wonder if the blue asbestos filters that these had accented their taste? hehe... yeah, Kent got in trouble for those micronite filters a few years after this commercial.

[HasanAbulFez]

Also notice how fast she was hitting those drags one after another. Maybe cocaine or some other sort of stimulant.. she sure seemd peppy after... mmmmmmm asbestos

[littleguypainting]

Pnodca, I would bet that the 'smoking = bad" crowd comes here and posts their beliefs for the same reason you do....the forum is provided for user comments. I notice you don't have a problem with posting your own opinion on the subject.

Seems like you are telling everyone who doesn't agree with your opinion on smoking not to post on smoking vids... a little hypocritical don't you think?

[reymatt76]

I think the reason people actually enjoy these commercials is because they are all from before 1970, so they have vintage charm. I agree with pnodca, yes, we all know that smoking is bad for you, can we move past that and just enjoy the commercial for what it is? If I hear one more person drone on about how horrid these ads were and how they're glad they're not on the air anymore... They're glad, yet they scan YouTube beating a dead horse. Yes, we know it's bad for you. We get it... Thanks.

[doctortabby]

Here here!

[NickB1967]

Were television ads for smoking banned in 1971?

[soberdrunk78]

@NickB1967 Yes they were, due to a law passed during the Nixon administration. The last cigarette commercial was shown on 1/1/71, just before midnight; it was for a pack of Virginia Slims.

[trh2130]

yes

[pnodca]

Why is it the tobaco=bad crowd has a post on nearly every smoking vid? If you are oposed to smoking why are you here? Some folks just CAN'T seem to resist telling others how to live.

[wdc2998]

that chick is hot!

[rdmb57]

brisk breezy menthol flavor is awesome

[Pirmadiene]

kent is awesome

[kustomchainwerks]

cancer is awesome

[HyperTalli]

That shows me that times have changed today It would seem wired if such an attractive women smoked in TV.

[ClassicCommercials4U]

But it would be realistic, almost everyone I know smokes.

[HyperTalli]

Yeah most of my friends smoke. But if it was in an advert it still would seem kinda strange.

[TheNiceMeanMan]

KEWL!

[belmont162]

If you want some real contentment, to live life at its best

You can buy these dry tobacco leaves, to breathe into your chest

And then look up at the billboard, while all the promises come true, for you

You'll feel alive with pleasure, playful as a child

You've come to where the freedom is

You're cool and mild

You'll laugh with every lungful as the change comes over you

So look up at the billboard

See her smiling, sexy and tan

But the only one who's laughing is the advertising man

[belmont162]

Those portraits of pleasure, of those who like to smoke

They're laughing in the photograph, but we don't get the joke

Now why would they be smiling while they're looking down our way?

I guess they're making easy money climbing up the rungs

From selling us a parasite that's feeding on our lungs

They must be laughing in astonishment that we believe the things they say

So look up at the billboard

See her smiling, sexy and tan

But the only one who's laughing is the advertising man

[belmont162]

Now crack'll kill you quickly

That's why it's got to go

They'll get more of your money if they kill you nice and slow

Yeah, the only one who's laughing is the advertising man

[inkey2]

@belmont162 you don't breath the raw leaves into your chest.....you light them and inhale the smoke

[fromthesidelines]

This ad originally appared in 1969....

[tnbljp]

Filtered in the red box, Menthol in the Green box and YOU in the black box!

[evelyngolleher]

Kent III 100s are my brand!

[anouk0205]

i love kent menthol!

[TheHOODLUMdj]

Kent was the brand for nerds

[EllebelleBelgium]

They still make Kent Menthols. I always smoke them.

[SriAn0nymity]

Aren't Newports the most popular menthol cigs in the US?

[tvercetti1970]

.........I don't think that they make Kent

Menthols anymore.I smoke Kools but never

tried Kents.

[OrangeJuiceM8]

I smoked one today, so they do make them.

[buddarace]

cigarettes are so addictive that nowadays tobacco companies dont need to make adds

[bellybutton999]

hey what are the most easy 2 find menthol cigs in uk?

[AllyTheIrishFaire]

mayfair menthols. they're the ones in a green packet =]

[rasputin63]

This chick seems awfully....intense...

[johnsposato]

This would have to be 1970, since that's when it became illegal to do these commercials. Nowadays, the cigarettes sell themselves. How times have changed! Yet you can still remember a simpler time here! What would Rob Reiner think?

[scorp1976]

Good Video

[coatandbag]

Those Kent Menthol commercials were great! Lots of beautiful women smoking a cigarette, very sexy. Do you have more of these, I'd like to see all of them!

[btwokyu]

It's amazing how effective these advertisements were.

They worked, bottom line. Even now I'm tempted to go buy a pack of Kent cigs, although I will not.

[Nikes62]

Cyanide...arsenic...tar...nico­tine, wow, Kent got it all together!! All the cancer inducing chemicals combined in a new menthol taste.

[spectrum10]

I found a cigarette ingredient list on one of the tobacco company websites that was two pages long. Some cigarette companies add corn syrup to the tobacco, the same stuff that they put in soft drinks. Tobacco companies had 'research' divisions whose goal was to find ways to enhance smoker satisfaction.

[soberdrunk78]

I wonder if the slim look was related from competition from the Virginia Slims? Also, those Kool Filter Longs on the "Lady be cool" ads (sure! cancer, ladies!).

[laughingtiger123]

I've got around 8 of these...they are all great!
