This is a smokin’ piece of stop-motion animation…

(Thanks, David O’Reilly)

That was rather fun. Would it be rude of me to plug my own cigarette-related animation here? If so, please delete this comment.

I made some stop-motion cigarette movies as a student at SVA, way back in the day. To check them out, go to my youtube channel: http://www.youtube.com/user/Miltonicity , and click on the Viva la Revolution episodes. I’d love to get some comments and star-ratings on these. Thanks!

Could Lucky Strike’s early TV admen have seen the film David linked to above?

Second link includes the sales pitch “So round, so firm, so fully packed, so easy on the draw” quoted in Daffy Duck’s riff on Danny Kaye in “Book Revue.”
