1897 Advertising Ogden Smoking Guinea Gold
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the late 19th century, specifically to the year 1897. The image showcases a British newspaper advertisement for Ogdens Guinea Gold cigarettes, a popular brand at the turn of the century. The focal point of the ad is an elegantly dressed woman wearing a fashionable hat, exuding sophistication and charm. She holds a cigarette delicately between her fingers, showcasing both style and confidence in her smoking habit. This portrayal challenges traditional gender roles of that era, as women were not commonly associated with smoking. The vintage aesthetic of this photograph adds to its allure, transporting us to a time when tobacco advertising was prevalent in newspapers across Britain. The attention to detail in this advertisement reflects the craftsmanship and artistry that went into creating such promotional materials during this period. As we observe this historical artifact from Granger Art on Demand's collection, we are reminded of how society has evolved over time regarding attitudes towards smoking and gender norms. It serves as a reminder that cultural values are constantly shifting and evolving throughout history. This print offers us an intriguing glimpse into the past while also sparking curiosity about how advertising techniques have changed since then.
