Prejudice Thrives Where Ignorance Hives!
AN ANCIENT PREJUDICE
HAS BEEN REMOVED
AMERICAN INTELLIGENCE beckons all to cultivate knowledge. Tyranny9
intolerance and poverty wither as schools grow in this great land of opportunity.
toasting did it
Gone is that ancient prejudice against cigarettes—Progress
' has been made. We removed the prejudice against cigarettes
when we removed harmful corrosive ACRIDS (pungent irri
tants) from the tobaccos.
YEARS ago, when cigarettes were made without the aid of
modern science, there originated that ancient prejudice against
all cigarettes. That criticism is no longer justified. LUCKY STRIKE,
the finest cigarette you ever smoked, made of the choicest tobacco,
properly aged and skillfully blended—“It’s Toasted”
“TOASTING,” the most modern step in cigarette manufacture,
removes from LUCKY STRIKE harmful irritants which are pres
ent in cigarettes manufactured in the old-fashioned way.
Everyone knows that heat purifies, and so “TOASTING”—
LUCKY STRIKE’S extra secret process — removes harmful cor
rosive ACRIDS (pungent irritants) from LUCKIES which in the
old-fashioned manufacture of cigarettes cause throat irritation and
coughing. Thus “TOASTING” has destroyed that ancient preju
dice against cigarette smoking by men and by women.
“It’s toasted”
No Throat Irritation-No Cough.

“It’s Toasted’*—the phrase that describes the
extra “toasting” process applied in the manu
facture of Lucky Strike Cigarettes. The finest
tobaccos—the Cream of the Crop—are scien
tifically subjected to penetrating heat at mini
mum, 260°—maximum, 300°, Fahrenheit. The
exact, expert regulation of such high tempera
tures removes impurities. More than a slogan,
“It’s Toasted” is recognized by millions as the
most modern step in cigarette manufacture.
