Interesting vintage concept

Those of you who are on Instagram have seen this image I posted on the Vintagefashionguild account, but I thought it would be fun to share with others. This is from a 1939 McCalls Magazine. Each glove holds four cigarettes.

What a fantastic concept

Wow....wouldn't you like to find a pair of those gloves? Not that I smoke but they would be cool to see and would probably sell. I love the colors in this ad and the hat, of course! As always, thanks Amanda, for finding such interesting things and sharing with all of us!

Bonnie - if you have access to Instagram - check out the Vintagefashionguild account there. I try to post often. And thanks.

I would love these- and I don’t smoke! What a great idea.

Amanda, what fun--thanks. No wonder women smoked; it was fashionable.

Thanks MS - I didn't realize it was part of a Chesterfield ad. Hand and glove! Clever.

Great ad and great gloves, nice idea with the pocket concept in the gloves, one could certainly hold other useful items there like tissue or tickets.
