EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1957, showcasing a rectangular counter-card featuring an exquisite reproduction of David Cobb's painting. The artwork beautifully captures two yachts fearlessly navigating through treacherous rough seas. In the foreground, we see a distinguished gentleman dressed in red and another in blue standing at the mast of one yacht, symbolizing their unwavering courage and determination. Adding to the visual allure are images positioned at the bottom left corner of this print. Here, we find an open packet of Medium Navy Cut tobacco alongside an open tin containing 50 Navy Cut Cigarettes Medium - both products proudly associated with Players brand. The text accompanying these images reads: "From start to finish // Players // Please" inviting viewers into a world where indulging in fine tobacco is synonymous with embarking on a thrilling adventure. The overall composition exudes nostalgia for a bygone era when smoking was often intertwined with leisurely pursuits like sailing along picturesque coastlines.

While admiring this remarkable piece, it's impossible not to be transported back in time – envisioning oneself aboard those resilient yachts as they conquer turbulent waters while enjoying the rich flavors offered by Players' renowned tobacco products.
