ON THE FAST SIDE—A 50-mile-an-hour skid, and Jimmie Kelly
(No. 43) whips into the lead on the ocean beach at Daytona. On a
racing motor-cycle Jimmie Kelly is a riding champion, but when
it comes to cigarettes, this record-breaking driver is ...
“ON THE SLOW SIDE”-That’s Jimmie Kelly’s way-and the
way of millions of other smokers —of saying that he prefers the
slower-burning cigarette... Camel. "That’s where the 'extras’ are
in cigarette pleasure and value,” explains Jimmie {above).
/"CHAMPION Jimmie Kelly {right, above)
is just one of thousands of experienced
smokers who have discovered that Camel’s
slower way of burning means several definite
advantages. Being slower-burning, Camels are
free from the drying, uncomfortable qualities
of excess heat.They give you extra mildness and
extra coolness... always so welcome. Slower
burning makes the most of the full, rich flavor
of Camel’s costlier tobaccos. Camels give you
extra flavor... don’t tire your taste. The extra
smoking in Camels is a matter of the smokers’
experience as well as of impartial laboratory
record. So get more pleasure per puff and more
puffs per pack. Get Camels. Penny for penny,
Camels are your best cigarette buy!
9 In recent laboratory tests,
CAMELS burned 25% slower
than the average of the 15 other
of the largest-selling brands
tested—slower than any of them.
That means, on the average, a
smoking plus equal to
