Auction History Result 6a0197 CAMEL CIGARETTES DS 14x49 advertising poster 1994 art of smoking Joe Camel with saxophone! Date Sold 10/4/2020 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Unfolded Double-Sided Advertising Poster (measures 14 1/4" x 48 1/2" [36 x 123 cm]) (Learn More) Camel Cigarettes is an American cigarette brand introduced by R.J. Reynolds Tobacco in 1913. It started using a camel as its brand symbol because they rolled the cigarettes with Turkish paper to imitate the then-fashionable Egyptian cigarettes. In 1987, they created a mascot named Joe Camel, which was a humanoid camel that wore sunglasses and could always be seen with a cigarette in his mouth. Joe was retired in 1997 after repeated requests from the American Medical Association, and the company paid millions to settle lawsuits accusing them of using Joe Camel to market smoking to children. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this is a double-sided poster. From the 1990s on, movie posters were often made in double-sided versions (for use in light boxes). If we do not note that a poster is double-sided (as this is), then it is single-sided. Note that the image on the reverse is a mirror image of the image on the front! Note that this poster must be sent in a tube that is over 32" long (which is why it is in this set of auctions). You can tell how long the tube will need to be by adding 2 inches to the shorter dimension of the length or width (so 40x60s need to be sent in a 42 inch long tube, etc). Most of these posters (with the notable exception of paper banners) CAN be combined in the same tube together, with a few exceptions. Bear in mind that a very long tube (42 inches or longer) will cost a lot more to send than a 30" tube, so bear that in mind before bidding on this poster. Condition: good to very good. The poster is printed on a double-sided vinyl type material and it has a "crack" in the "L" of the title (see our image). Learn More about condition grades
