EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant print captures a piece of advertising history from Nottingham in 1955. The small rectangular counter card features the iconic Players Navy Cut logo, with a yellow background and cream edge that adds a touch of vintage charm. In the center, we see the head and shoulders of a proud sailor wearing a hatband that reads "H Ms EXCELLENT" showcasing his affiliation with the Royal Navy. The attention to detail is remarkable, as even in this compact format, there is room for another sailor in the bottom right corner, depicted within a life buoy trade mark. This clever addition further emphasizes the maritime theme of this advertisement. The bold red title text boldly states "Players // Please" urging viewers to indulge in their tobacco products. However, it's important to note that this caption focuses on appreciating the historical significance and artistic elements captured within this image rather than promoting commercial use. Overall, this print serves as both an intriguing glimpse into advertising techniques of yesteryears and an ode to Nottingham's rich naval heritage. It encapsulates themes such as uniformity, sailing ships against sea scapes, and the brave sailors who navigated these waters under John Player & Sons' brand name – all while evoking nostalgia for those who remember or appreciate vintage aesthetics.
