The first half of the 20th century was the golden age of the cigarette. In 1950 around half
of the population of industrialized countries smoked, in the United Kingdom up to 80 percent of adult men were regular smokers.
Smoking was an acceptable form of social behavior in all areas of life—at work, in the home, in bars, and at the cinema—and
advertisers were keen to show the full range of leisure activities made complete only through the addition of a cigarette.
Smoking cigarettes was popular across all social classes and increasingly among women, once associations of smoking with deviant sexuality began to fade in the 1920s. Marlboro is a trademark of cigarette made by
Philip Morris USA (a branch of Altria) within the US, and by Philip Morris global (now separate from Altria) outside the US. It is well-known for its billboard
advertisements and magazine ads of the Marlboro Man.Philip Morris, a London-based cigarette manufacturer, created a New York subsidiary in 1902 to sell several of its cigarette brands, including Marlbor
o. By 1924 they were publicity Marlboro as a woman's cigarette based on the slogan "Mild As May".The brand was sold in this capability until World War II when the brand faltered and was temporarily removed from the market. At the end of the war, three brands emerged that would establish a firm holds on the cigarette market:
Camel, Lucky Strike, and
Chesterfield. These trademarks were supplied to US soldiers during the war, creating an instant market upon their return.During the 1950s Reader's Digest magazine published a series of articles that linked smoking with lung cancer. Phillip Morris, and the other cigarette companies took notice and each began to market filtered cigarettes. The new
Marlboro with a filtered end was launched in 1955. In the early 1960s Philip Morris invented "Marlboro Country" and distilled their manly imagery into the rugged cowboys known as the "Marlboro Men."The brand is named after Great Marlborough Street, the location of its original London Factory. Richmond, Virginia is now the location of the largest
Marlboro cigarette manufacturing plant. Mild Seven is the second most popular cigarette in the world, and with good reason. It has become more and more in demand. This is the premier brand of Japan Tobacco and is still Japan’s favorite smoke. Originally a variation on the then popular brand Seven Stars, Mild Seven was introduced in 1977 and has never looked back. It also has not suffered at all from current cigarette advertising restrictions. Mild Seven proudly sponsors Formula One racecars and has a successful billboard campaign which has been imitated by other, lesser known cigarette brands. Their packaging is a very elegant white spiral on a cool blue background. Often, they are packaged in an equally elegant blue stripeagainst an eye-catching white background. Mild Seven is made in Russia. Mild Seven comes in Original, Lights and Super Lights. Mild Sevens do not pack their tobacco as tightly as other brands, making that first puff easier on the throat and the entire cigarette a smooth, pleasurable experience. Mild Sevens satisfy without overpowering your body or emptying your wallet.
