Throwback to a wild era in medicine and advertising. Cigarette brands and promises.

So, uh, we like thrifting, and so I found this at the thrift store. Now it's slowly disintegrating because it's so old. It's a cosmetic surgery textbook, or like a book written by some of the giants in plastic surgery, like Ralph Millard, who like invented the cleft lip repair. Anyway, inside of it, you know, they talk about all different surgeries, and it's written in the 1970s. And as we know, like smoking, it's not good for surgery. But look at their only advertisement inside, right? Menthol cigarettes. Can you believe it? Like, this is back in the days when doctors used to make rounds in the hospital smoking cigarettes and visiting their patients. My mom is a retired nurse, and she told me about seeing that when she was working. So anyway, quite interesting. They say some really kind of things that maybe wouldn't fly today, talking about Flat-chested and all kinds of like terminology that was a bit old school. So anyway, no smoking, right? And hope you have a great day.
