Next, they're dolled up and flavorings are sure getting expensive. And then, they're priced a bit high so they'll seem "exclusive." But read how Spur Cigarettes offer the highest possible quality at the lowes't possible price: ' If there are any finer tobaccos from the Orient and the good old U. 6. A. than those selected for Spurs, they must be a secret that the world has never heard. And when we got these combined in Spur Cigarettes, what do you suppose was the result? Just the best taste and aroma that any cigarette could give, and Willie Doll-up or Freddie Flavoring hadn't a thing to do with it. Spur is " class." all through even to the smart " brown-and-silver" package, triple-wrapped, that keeps Spurs fresh and fragrant. Try out a package of Spurs. You'll say "made and priced for popularity. " ' MANUFACTURED BT Liggett & Myers Tobacco Co. 20
