Percy likes old things~~
Haw you heard the one
about the man who smoked
old-fashioned cigars? Seems he
discovered the up-to-date White Owls
—and lived happily ever after
In recent years the art of cigar making certainly
has changed'! Lower tariffs ... improved manu*
facturing methods—we take advantage of every
opportunity to improve White Owls... keep them
up-to-date. Now mild domestic tobaccos are richly
blended with finest Havana in White Owls—
bringing mellower, milder, more fragrant smoking
pleasure.
AND ANOTHER POINT—White Owl, like many
other cigars, once cost more. But hundreds of
thousands of men buy it—not because it once
cost more—but because it tastes so good today. As
a matter of fact, White Owl is a much better cigar
now than when it cost more. Try one today.
THE 81G SWING IS TO WHITE OWL!
