Facts like these make Fatima's
place among cigarettes unique.
A few years ago, the proper"
thing on such state occasions
would have been an expensive,
fancy boxed, straight Turkish
cigarette.
Today, things are different.
Men base their choice on taste
rather than price. That Fatima
should be SO clearly the choice
of men who can afford anything
they like, shows that most smok-
ers really prefer-not too much
Turkish tobacco in their cigar
cites nor too iittIe-but s'just
enough Turkish"
