"That's just what I've always wished a cigarette would do -satisfy"

In other words, besides pleasing the taste, Chesterfields go them all one better they satisfy! Just like a long drink of cold water satisfies when you're thirsty.

No other cigarette can give you this new enjoyment because none can copy Chester- feld's blend.

It's a blend of the finest TURKISH tobaccos from Xanthi, Cavalla, Smyrna and Samsoun and several varieties of the choicest American. And the blend itself-the skill with which these tobaccos have been proportioned is a real discovery in cigarette making.
