The article telling the public that more doctors smoke CAMEL cigarettes, thus advertising CAMELS, it also is showing famous people on the bottom and what cigarettes they smoke. Like Marilyn Monroe smoking.
The main image is of a doctor smoking a cigarette and he is also in his office, most likely at his desk.
The people shown in this advertisement are every day, well known people who smoke more than once or twice a day, people that smoke religiously.
They appear to be enjoying their cigarettes, even the serious faced doctor with a smirk on his face; you can still tell he enjoys them.
Their goal is promoting cigarettes, showing it’s cool to smoke. Even now a day you see doctors smoking still, even though they know what it does to people. It’s an addiction they may possibly enjoy having.
Smoking probably doesn't seem as harmful to people during this time. So like most people they smoke to relieve stress, it’s just what people do. If it takes the stress out of their lives, who are we to question them on why they smoke.
The iconic faces shown are people whom we have all seen advertising smoking/ cigarettes for years, and we honestly do not question them on their actions. Though now we can help but question stars and other every day civilians on why they smoke. Like I had stated before, who are we to honestly question people on why they do what they do. People are their own spokesperson, we can’t control them.
The outcomes of advertisements such as this, do get more and more people to smoke/ continue smoking, and those of which that do have kids, they usually end up smoking, but this is because they grew up around it. Though there are probably multiple cases where parents have suffered due to smoking, which may lead to their children never touching a cigarette. It’s just more common to see people smoking. Like someone had said, “population control”.
