In the 92 days since LasM Filters were
put on sale across the country they have
gained a nation-wide demand never be
fore equalled by any other cigarette in
so short a time.
So naturally .. . down goes the price
to you of LasMs — America’s highest
quality and“best filter tip cigarette.
Thousands of dealers in America’s
largest cities (New York,Boston, Phila
delphia, Chicago and Los Angeles) in
signed statements report L&Ms their
largest selling filter tip cigarette.
Why have L&M Filters rolled up
sales records like this? For the first time
filter tip smokers are getting what they
want... much more flavor and aroma
. . . with much less nicotine. After the
first few puffs from an L&M, most
smokers sum it up this way,
“THIS IS IT-JUST WHAT
