You can look the whole world over and you won’t
find another cigarette with Chesterfield’s RldHTtOMBl-
nation of the best American and Turkish tobaccos.
In Chesterfield you find just what every smoker
looks for... COOL SMOKING, definite mildness, and the ■
one thing that really satisfies...downright GOOD TASTE.
