EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage print captures the essence of cool and sophistication in the 1960s. The image features a man, seen from the shoulders up, holding an umbrella and an open packet of Bachelor Tipped Cigarettes. With one cigarette pulled out of the pack, he is about to place it in his mouth. Dressed in an orange jumper and a blue scarf, he exudes style even as his head remains in shadow, creating a striking silhouette. The text on the counter-card boldly declares "BACHELOR // the // tip // thats // setting // the // trend" emphasizing that this brand is at the forefront of fashion and taste. Hand-written notes on reverse indicate that this advertisement dates back to 1961 and was associated with Walter Thompson. While not explicitly mentioned in this caption, it's worth noting that this image evokes a sense of winter charm with its snowy backdrop. Perhaps it was part of a Christmas or winter-themed campaign by John Player & Sons, known for their tobacco products. Whether enjoyed during festive parties or while engaging in sports like skiing or hot air ballooning, Bachelor Tipped Cigarettes were undoubtedly positioned as an accessory for those who wanted to be seen as sophisticated trendsetters. This photograph serves as both a nostalgic reminder of advertising history and a testament to timeless style.
