Vintage Lucky Strike Christmas commercial

[Jellevlogs]

I don't no how but this commercial is very scary... Still the best cigarettes btw.

[littlejackrussell]

Why should we care who smokes. We will all die from global warming anyway, just ask A Gore. He will save us all, when he finds his manbearpig.

[tye680]

If we only knew

[andyjay729]

"What are you doing, getting up early to sneak a peek at the presents? Well, I'll show you! You're gonna smoke EVERY ONE of those 200 cigarettes, ya little punk!"

[TheLukeBot]

"It looks so bright and colourful"... umm, I'll have to take your word for it.

[kaji161187]

QUIERO UNOS DE ESOS PARA ESTA NAVIDAD....

[1967mustanggta]

Take your pick - give the gift of cancer or diabettes. Diabettes won out. Young and old alike - Valentines day, Easter, Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas give the gift of blindness, amputation, kidney failure and shortened life GUARANTEED! Lots and lots of sweets make every holiday a special occassion.

[HighProphetOfRegret]

@1967mustanggta Sadly, what you're saying will go over the heads of 99% of the people who read your comment. Most people think sweet cause tooth decay and that's it.

[russocomedy]

Jesus Christ! "Nuff said."

[InfiniteMushroom]

Damn, what a honey! I sure miss the Old Republic.

[Plasticvillemayor]

Toasted cigarettes?

[whatanightmare1]

Do they still make Lucky Strikes? I have not seen anyone smoke them since I was kid, and I'm not a youngster by no means.

[Mmkey1]

@whatanightmare1 they sell them evrywhere in Sweden atleast

[JosephFM4]

@whatanightmare1 In the US they are only sold as unfiltered and a lot of places don't carry them but in Europe they're still very common. The company that makes them, American Tobacco, was sold to British Tobacco in the 1970s (which was then renamed British American Tobacco); they stopped selling Lucky filters in the US in the early 2000s.

who let her out of the kitchen?!

[jbdtaylor]

@DrQuackMD 200 cigarettes in the pack, I think it was just saying that that's the message a Lucky Strike cigarette gives! Kind of unclear, at first I thought they might mean it said it on every cigarette!

[ThatHoodieGuy]

The gift of cancer!

[taiman12000]

A Christmas carton of Lucky cigs under the Christmas tree?? Just what every kid wants from Santa.

[Jctrynr]

I'm thinking about growing my own tobacco any tips?

[taiman12000]

@Jctrynr you'd have more fun growing cannabis.

[moteet]

It all depends on your body chemistry..,people. If chemistry is weak, then think many times

[LokiV]

My Grandad is 120 years old smoked 100 a day from the age of 6 and ran a marathon every day sounds familiar dont it?..uk,usa,and around the world they all say the same shit lol!!!

[tatetalk]

My grandma has been smoking since 15 and she is in her late 70s, still living strong.

[InfiniteMushroom]

Damn, I miss the days when we didn't go around like a bunch of Nazi psychopaths in a perpetual state of being offended! I don't smoke but, I long for the days when smokers were just part of the social background because we were once a free people.

Old cigarette commercials are appreciated now because they help us remember the sights and sounds of the Old Republic.

[poisonice017]

best Christmas gift ever :D

[teceyS3]

HOLY CRAP

[rogernma]

One Christmas long time ago, my millionaire uncle gave me a carton for a gift. Back then cartons cost $5, and it wasn't the brand I smoked. Over the years he's become even less generous.

[Twattler]

Other smokes look so light and colourful too. It's because they're burning.

[darrenw71]

She appears to forget the words of the tune at the end.

[MrDingez]

that's why it CAN'T go WRONG!

[MIZIZVOGUE]

She needs to go to the orthodontist and get rid of her lisp!

[misterwhitefolkz]

@MIZIZVOGUE ----a woman would say that, ask any guy and he'll tell you that lisp makes her even hotter!!!

[DarkElizabethBathory]

:D :D :D I want that gift!!!

Ja chcę taki prezent!!!! ta reklama to prawie jak szamponu do włosów jest, tekst cleaner, fresher smoother jest powalający :D

I love old american and polish commercials ;)

[Fiftiesflashback]

REMEMBER HOW GREAT CIGARETTES USED TO TASTE?

WELL, "LUCKIES" STILL DO!

[Fiftiesflashback]

IT'S TOASTED!

[e6e2e3e1]

Nothing can beat Luckies.

[BillieJoeIsHawt]

can anybody tell me what year this commercial is from? thanx!!!!!

[jimlowell]

@BillieJoeIsHawt  This is Dorothy Collins doing a commercial for "Your Hit Parade", a show that went off the air in the late fifties. She was one of the regulars. Commercial's probably from 1955 or so.

[pannoni1]

@jimlowell I would rather listen to 2 hours of Lawrence Welk and Mantovani and Liberace than smoke for 2 hours of this.

[jimlowell]

@pannoni1 Definitely!

[dirtdemon6]

I'd love to shag her righteous!!

[ElimRem]

after 10 years nobody knows why they changed from 20 a pack to 19

[MegaGreenDragons]

starts like horrormovie. XD

[daydreaming92]

haha, those were simplier times.

[akwaqs]

@TheJomogogo

Nor did we see stupid racist gibberish plastered all over YouTube.

[ragazzaimpaurita86]

Wow, a tumor box

[JeremyxFisher]

Aww.. This is such a nice ad. I want a carton of luckies for Christmas.

I wish I was smoking back then. Then people wouldn't be trying to make me feel ashamed of smoking.

[BigSmoke2222]

@JeremyxFisher Yeah man totally.. You were able to smoke in doors in most places. Nobody scolded you or gave you shit if you did. These commercials are so much cooler than these new anti-smoking ones.. LET SMOKERS SMOKE!! :)

[snootzie78]

this was before there were warning labels on cigarette packs

[echooplex]

I would like to win one of those though

[mralmeister1]

@bishop42962 no more screwed up than a bottle of booze for christmas and people do that all the time. I got one and I dont even drink.

[bishop42962]

What a screwed-up gift!

'Merry Christmas dear!'

'A carton of coffin nails packaged pretty under the sacrificial tree in full view of the kids so they will be influenced to start a lifelong habit of killing themselves slowly! Aww...you shouldn't have!'

[Backalleypeprally]

Still the best smokes.

[Wehrhafter]

@Backalleypeprally even people who're smoking different brands have to admit that!^^

[vorsakend]

@Backalleypeprally nah, Rothmans owns all

[JoshuaTaylor]

Good Lord ! There's so *many* things wrong with that I don't even know where to begin....

[chattychar]

creepy

[2468ali]

i wonder if anyone collects those... it really would have been nice having that one more than a half of a century later!)) btw, which year is it? something like 1954 i guess?

[princeminski47]

RAYMOND LOEWY?? No job too small, I guess.

[SNGspot]

Classic! Thx for sharing it. These other posters must be quite young and not have any knowledge of the social mores of yesteryear. :-)

[Jeff98177]

They're toasted!

[westmeat]

shut this stupid cunt up

[blugreen123]

"Happy Smoking?!" oh lord!
