A New Discovery
in Cigarette Blending
The big thing about Chesterfields is their unique blend. The Chesterfield blend is an en- tirely new combination of tobaccos. It is a most important development in cigarette making.
As a result, Chesterfields give a new kind of cigarette enjoyment-just like a "bite" before bedtime when you're hungry-they SATISFY!
It took the finest selections of TURKISH and AMERICAN tobaccos and no end of skill and patient experiment to get this blend right.
Was it worth it? Just smoke a Chester- feld fresh from the moisture-proof package. You'll say it was worth it, all right!
