EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage print showcases a classic advertisement for Navy Cut Medium tobacco, dating back to 1925-26. The rectangular counter card features a rich brown basket-weave background, adding an air of sophistication. At the center, there is an oval panel adorned with a dentil-edge frame that beautifully frames a pack of Navy Cut Medium tobacco. The text on the card has been modified by placing a label over the original price. It now reads "THE ORIGINAL // RUBBED READY // FOR SMOKING // PLAYERS // 'MEDIUM' // NAVY CUT // PER 1/01/2d OZ". This revised message emphasizes the quality and readiness of this particular brand. On the reverse side of the card, there is practical support allowing it to stand upright or be hung using a hoop or loop. Additionally, there is another label that states "MARDONS // WINDOW NOVELTIES // EMBOSSED SHOWCARDS / &C, &C // VARNISHERS // GELATINERS & FRAME MAKERS// BRISTOL & LONDON". This suggests that Mardons was responsible for creating these eye-catching advertising materials. This image not only serves as a reminder of Nottingham's history but also highlights John Player and Sons' contribution to the tobacco industry during that era. It evokes nostalgia and offers insight into early advertising techniques while showcasing exquisite craftsmanship in both design and execution.
