Decade is the first low 'tar' in which all the parts have been arranged in perfect balance with each other. This is the Decade "Total System". And this is why Decade is the first low 'tar' with a taste worth smoking". The four remaining top areas that are to be discussed are "The Tobacco. "Flavor Packing" plus fifteen tobaccos boost taste", "The Filter. Unique "Taste Channel" gives first puff impact", "The Paper. High Porosity paper controls burn rate" and "The Result. A completely new kind of low 'tar' cigarette".

Black and white 5" x 7" ad for their Mild Cigarettes. There is a drawing of a man sitting in his easy chair with a woman sitting on the arm of the chair taking a cigarette from his pack of Domino. The headline urges you to "Get to know Domino" which it calls "A Richer, Smoother Smoke". They suggest that you disregard the advertising claims of all cigarettes and just buy packs and see what you like. They want you to "Compare Domino with any cigarette at any price". The text claims that they are made "from choice imported and domestic tobaccos - vacuum-cleaned, firmly rolled, generously packed". I have been wondering about the claim of being "generously packed" and have to wonder if that doesn't mean that more often than not your pack will contain 21 cigarettes.

There are two people in this oasis, a man who is kneeling down by the water as he smokes his cigarette and a lady who is smoking her cigarette as she examines some of the orange flowers. The ad headline entices you to "Come to the Oasis...the only filter cigarette that's Oasis Cool, Oasis Mild, Oasis Fresh". The ad also tells us that "Menthol Misting makes it so" and then tells us that "Just as the mist of morning dew refreshes a flower - keeps it fresh all day - so Oasis mists and gently penetrates each strand of mild, ripe tobacco with menthol. The tobacco is soothed for the softest taste of all. The tobacco's refreshed - so you smoke refreshed all day. Menthol misting makes it so. Come to the OASIS".

The ad headline says "Presenting some new cliches Virginia Slims would like to drop into the English language" and the text lists several old sayings where the word "man" has been replaced with the word "woman".

Virginia Slims
Full color 9 1/2" x 13" ad for the Slim cigarettes made for Women. The top of the ad shows a picture of an old dining room where a fiftieth wedding anniversary is being celebrated. The lady of the union is sitting at the dining room table having just lit up a cigarette to the astonishment of everyone present, especially her husband. The caption explains that "In 1910 , Mrs Marita Duffy smoked her first cigarette on the occasion of her fiftieth wedding anniversary/ Mr. Duffy began to wonder if he'd married the wrong girl." The modern picture in the lower portion of the page shows an attractive lady, wearing a dress from Arnold Copper, holding a lit Virginia Slims as she laughs into her hand and the headline tells her that "You've come a long way, baby."

Virginia Slims
Full color 7 3/4" x 10 1/2" ad that says that "You've come a long way, baby". At the top of the page is an older photo that shows a formal evening dance and everyone seems to be looking in the middle at a strange appearance. To quote the text under the picture, "In order that she might sneak a cigarette, Mrs. Patrick Fitzgerald attended the Summer Ball dressed as a Pittsburgh steel mill chimney. Unfortunately for Mrs. Fitzgerald, it was not a costume affair". They do have a modern gal in this ad though. She is wearing a red pants suit and comes walking toward us with a cigarette in her left hand. She has a knowing look on her face and the pants suit has a long low look to it.

Virginia Slims
Full color 9 1/4" x 11 3/4" ad for the Lighter Cigarette designed for Women. This ad, following the "You've come a long way, Baby" thought process, has a picture of a confident-looking woman in white pants and hat with a blue and black striped shirt playing backgammon at a table with a young man. The woman is smoking her Virginia Slims and looking at the camera as the ad asks "Who says you can't make the first move?". The woman looks to have an unfair advantage in this game because the young man seems to be looking at nothing but her.

Waterford
Three color 9 1/2" x 12 1/2" ad for the Newest taste in smoking. The ad has a picture of a man with a boating hat on looking into the camera with a quizzical look on his face. The ad caption under this picture has him asking "Why would the commodore go around pinching cigarettes?" and the ad goes on to explain about the tiny capsules of water suspended in the tips of these cigarettes. The smoker was supposed to pinch or squeeze the cigarette on the blue lines which would break these capsules open so the smoke would be cooler. This ad is larger than my scanner bed so the outer edges of the ad will not be visible in the scanned view.

York
Full color 9 1/4" x 12" ad that has a picture of a man sitting on a chair holding a York Imperial Size cigarette between his two forefingers as he studiously considers it's length. The ad headline calls it "The first Imperial-size Cigarette!" and it explains that "York uses its imperial length instead of a filter to make rich tobaccos taste mild and smooth!". It then says that "Here's a new cigarette...longer than King-size...and there's an honest-to-goodness smoker's reason behind its creation. York travels the smoke farther...farther...farther...to improve smoking taste. Yes, York uses its Imperial length instead of a filter to make rich tobaccos taste mild and smooth. A superbly luxurious blend of tobaccos for rich flavor. Imperial length for mild, smooth taste". There is also a box that begins "Difference in Quality You Can Measure". It then says that "The difference in York is in the smoke itself. Prime quality tobaccos create a richer smoke. Imperial length gives the smoke a longer route to travel - to maintain a taste of mildness and smoothness".

York
Full color 10" x 13 1/2" ad for this Imperial Size cigarette. The ad shows a picture of a lit cigarette on top of an opened pack and they have it displayed in such a way that it seems to be bigger than the pack. They describe it as being "u-nique' "1. Single; sole 2. Being without a like or equal: single in kind or excellence : unequalled : matchless". Later in the ad they say that "Matchless is no wsy to be when a York is in the offing. All that unfiltered pleasure, all that light smooth taste waiting around...for a match. Seriously, York is unique. It has a slightly longer (perceptibly so) length that provides a smoother and lighter taste. Could it be because that added length travels the smoke that much further? Is that why a York somehow tastes mellower than any other unfiltered cigarette?".

York
Full color 9 3/4" x 13" ad that is for the York Imperial Size Cigarettes. In the photo it shows a pack opened up, torn open in fact, and there are only about eight cigarettes left in this pack. The pack is lying on its side next to a unique cigarette lighter that looks like a globe showing the seven continentents. There is a definition above this of the word world'ly that claims that it means "Devoted to or concerned with the affairs, pleasures, etc. of this world. wise in the ways of this world. sophisticated..." The ad text questions, "Wise in the ways of this world? Then surely you'd experienced the pleasures of this debonair cigarette. If you haven't quite got around to York yet you'll want to. The sensible Imperial length - a specialty with York - is one of the things that makes them do decidedly different. Noticeably longer than king-size, they're also noticeably smoother-tasting for such a rich flavored cigarette. (Maybe it's because the smoke travels that much further.) No filter. No outlandish promises. Just a good long smoke. As you already know, or will, on first try".

York
Full color 9 1/2" x 13" ad for their Imperial Size cigarettes that are described as being [su*pe*ri*or Higher in rank; position; authority. Greater in value; quaiity; far above the average.]. The red and white pack is shown laying on its side with one cigarette pulled and burning as it and the pack are resting on a wooden ruler. The ad asks "Looking for a cigarette that measures up? Then possibly you'd like to join the newly-formed (and growing) ranks of York smokers. What makes York smokers feel so superior about their cigarette? Several things. First, there's York's Imperial size. It's somewhat longer than king-size...assures just that much more smoothness. And then, there's more rich taste, too, because there's more of the world's finest tobaccos. Superior satisfaction? But definitely. You might even agree to that with your first pack of York Imperial-size cigarettes".
