Dang Ole' Raybrag, I knew the answer too. BUT "if I didn't have to go sit on the "pottie" in such a hurry, I could have gotten those answers FIRST. (Them Micky D Big Macs do it all the time).

 

[raybrag]

Shucks, Bill.  I knew there was a reason I had to jump in before my regular morning visit to the most important throne in the house.  But then, I had Chinese yesterday . . . no Big Macs.    ;D

 

[memory master]

Is that a 1960 Ford parked on the corner by the el? Looks like one to me, but maybe it's not.

"LUCKY - STRIKE - MEANS - FINE - TABACCO".

How's that Chief !!!!

"Eat your heart out there Mr Raybrag". See what happens when I don't need to run to the throne because I ate too many Big Macs the night before.

The name "Lucky Strike" was given by the owner who was inspired with the gold rush...if you found gold in there them hills it was considered a Lucky Strike. Originally the cigarette pack was green and switched over to white during WWII as the needed ingredients for color componets were more valuable for war effort.

 

[raybrag]

One of Luckies' advertising gimmicks in 1942 was the slogan "Lucky Strike Green has gone to war."

When I was stationed in Germany in the middle 60's, we were required to have C-Rations once per week in the missile site chow hall (probably to use up old WWII stuff).  I was issued a box of C-rats one day, opened it up and found a 4-pack of Lucky Strikes with a GREEN label.  20 years after the war ended.  BTW, for you young'uns . . . C-Rats always had a 4-pack of cigarettes . . . after all, EVERYBODY smoked back then.

And, for Willy . . . Of course you beat me on LSMFT . . . I was in bed enjoying my beauty sleep.  Us old farts go to bed early.

 

[raybrag]

"A little dab'll do ya"???

 

[nfd2004]

"A little dab'll do ya"???

"Brylcreem", 1950s commercial. We all used it back then when we had more hair than we do now - hoping that it would work for us guys.

It was before color TV or as we know it today, cable TV.

So let's take you back some 60 years ago. If you remember this one, "raybrag" is NOT the only old fart on here.
