Description
Full color 10″ x 13 1/2″ ad for Smirnoff Vodka with the message that “Mixed or Straight – It leaves you breathless!”. To demonstrate the dual-purpose of this product we see a picture showing actor Joseph Cotten sitting at a table talking to a standing Joseph Cotten. They are each holding a glass with Smirnoff, one straight and the other a mixed drink. The text reminds us that this dual-purpose is due to the fact that Smirnoff has no liquor taste due to the strenuous filtering that is done through the mountains of charcoal.
