It's interesting to see signs posted like this dated from around 1915, yet 40 years after discussions about how nasty smoking habits are (were), that there were still commercials promoting smoking to kids.

Below is the YouTube link to the 1950's Flintstones cigarette commercial.

Flintstones debuted in 1960, so that was early 60's. Insidious nonetheless.

When the showed first aired it was written for and marketed to adults.

Used to think that caffeine and nicotine made a complete protein and that I would live forever. Smoked my last Camel twenty years ago. I am at an age now where all those tasty little carcinogens would be coming home to roost. Still like to stand downwind from all the smokers, however, when I'm having that first cuppa joe. Ahhhhh!
