You have to love the 80’s; neon colours everywhere, massive perms and shoulder pads, Naas Botha not talking about ‘da udder hand Darren’, they were by all accounts a pretty good time.
The 80’s was also a time when cigarette companies were still allowed to advertise their wares, sponsoring sporting events, fancy dress parties and taking over our cinema screens with elaborate adverts singing the praises of all things tobacco.
Readers often get in touch with us asking where exactly they can find these old-school gems, with many of the accounts sharing these ads having vanished. Thankfully Seth managed to track down a pearler of a compilation, four Peter Stuyvesant commercials designed specifically for South African cinema-goers strung together for your enjoyment.
Sun, sex and skimpy bikini bottoms, skiing and jets and fast cars. Cigarettes – all the cool kids are doing it.
