Transcript

The Jack Benny program, transcribed and presented by Lucky Strike. Lucky, taste better. Cleaner, fresher, smoother. Lucky, taste better. Cleaner, fresher, smoother. For Lucky, strike me. I can act all rich, or tasty. I can act all lucky, taste better.

Cleaner, fresher, smoother. Lucky, strike. Lucky, strike. This is Don Wilson, friends. Let's take a good, close look at the subject of why you smoke cigarettes. Think it over a minute and you'll agree that the main reason and probably the only reason you smoke is simply that you enjoy it.

So all a matter of taste. The reason for this better taste is that luckies are actually made better. Made round and firm and fully packed to draw freely and smoke evenly. Fine tobacco in a better made cigarette gives you better taste every single time.

So if you go along with me that smoking enjoyment is all a matter of taste, then be happy, go lucky, because the fact of the matter is, luckies taste better. Get a carton of lucky strike and see for yourself.

Lucky taste better. Cleaner, fresher, smoother. Lucky strike. Lucky strike. Strike program starring Jack Benny with Barry Livingston Rochester, Dennis Day, Bob Crosby, and yours truly now. Ladies and gentlemen, after living for 15 years at the same address in Beverly Hills, hills, our little star recently decided to put his house up for sale. So let's go out to Camden

Drive where we find Jack showing a prospective buyer through the premises. Well, I guess I've shown you about everything, Mr. Mrs. Borden. It's quite a nice house. Yes, it's just about what we had in mine. Good, good. Naturally, I wouldn't want to high pressure you into a sale because I don't believe in doing business that way. But where else at the price can you find a home with this square footage?
