The instant success of blended cigarette brands such as Camel, Lucky Strike, and Chesterfield spurred the tobacco industry to spend millions on promotion and advertising.
If TV and newspapers tell us anything, it’s that working in advertising back in the 60′s and 70′s was fun, booze-fueled and that everyone smoked lots and had buxom secretaries...Perhaps bearing this in mind it’s no surprise......

“On the evening of May 20,” begins an article in the June 16, 1941, issue of LIFE magazine, “members of the Young Women’s Republican Club of Milford, Conn., explored the pleasures of tobacco, poker, the strip tease and such other masculine enjoyments as had frequently cost them the evening companionship of husbands, sons and brothers.” Nina Leen chronicled the shenanigans that erupted when a group of GOP women got together for an old-fashioned “smoker.” (Photos: Nina Leen, via LIFE)

SBT Co. Ltd has come up with a fantastic invention called the E-Cigarette.It's an electronic cigarette that actually tricks the brain into thinking you are smoking ...

They use lack of coughing, slimming down, celebrity endorsements, and flavors as incentives to attract potential and current smokers. There are also ALOT of inappropriate sexual innuendos (entertaining too) ... just pointing them out! I've collected the following images from Google images:
