The JAK-BENI program presented by Lucky Strike! Extra ball, da-blah-blah-blah-blah-blah-blah-blah-blah-blah-blah-blah-blah-blah-blah-blah-blah-blah-blah-blah-blah-blah-blah-blah-blah-blah-blah-blah-blah-blah-blah-blah-blah-blah-blah-blah. There's never a rough puff in a Lucky. That's right friends, for Lucky's are always mellow, mild, and deeply enjoyable. Here's why. In a cigarette it's the tobacco that counts, and LS MFT, Lucky Strike means fine tobacco.
Yes, today, tomorrow, always. Lucky strike means fine tobacco. Light ripe tobacco that always smokes smoother, milder, puff after puff, pack after pack. Now, fine tobacco costs more, and at the auctions, luckies pay more. Millions of dollars more than official parity prices to get really fine tobacco for your cigarette.
So friends, for smoking enjoyment at its finest with never a rough puff. Step a Lucky. Every puff of the way you'll get more, much more real deep down smoking enjoyment. Yes, the next time you buy cigarettes, ask for a carton of Lucky Strike.
So round, so firm, so fully packed, so free and easy on the draw. The Lucky Strike program starring Jack Benny with Barry Livingston, Phil Harris, Rochester, Dennis Day, the sportsman, Ford Ted and yours truly, Don Wilson.
Ladies and gentlemen, 1949 is gone and forgotten. But to Jack Benny, 1950 will always be remembered. Because 1950 is what he paid for his new suit. And here he is, Jack Benny. Thank you, thank you.
Well, again, this is Jack Benny talking to you and Don, I want to ask you something. How did you know that I bought a new suit? I heard it on Drew Proussen. You heard it on Watt?
Wait a minute. I want to hear this, Ernie. You heard it on Watt? I heard it on Drew Proussen's broadcast. Ladies and gentlemen, he got the award for being the best announcer in the show.
