This will be an occasional feature here, in which I will unearth (OK, merely search YouTube for) blasts from the past that kinda contrast with the present.
Before Mike Farrell was Dr. B.J. Hunnicut, and before he became a symbol of causes and political correctness, he was a shill for cancer sticks. In this 1970 ad, back when Big Tobacco could still advertise on TV, he and some very pretty woman (man, she should have gone further than Farrell) sail on a boat to promote Chesterfield 101s. That's an odd size; I've heard of 100s and 120s, but 101? He seems like a dreamboat up until the end, when he hogged the coupon. Do they still have coupons with packs of cigarettes? And is Chesterfield still around?
