The Pleasure is Back. Barclay cigarettes


This is a full page ad from the 1981 Seattle Mariners home game program. Barclay! My step-father smoked these for a long time. The filter wasn't round but the paper around the filter was, so there were chutes of airspace that you dragged hot and unpleasant smoke from. I was not a fan, and neither was he, they were "low tar." A few years later he said screw it and went to Camel filtered.

  1. Actually, the tar was still there, they just used lots, and lots, and lots of other chemicals to... well, neutralize it, sort of.... if you know what I mean.
