EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image from the Mary Evans Prints Online archive transports us back in time to circa 1917, as we join a distinguished gentleman in the comfort of his home, seated in a plush armchair, engrossed in the pleasurable experience of smoking a Melachrino cigarette. The air is thick with the aroma of exotic Egypt, as Melachrino, importers extraordinaire, brought the finest cigarettes from the land of the pharaohs to Australasia. The man's expression speaks volumes, as he savors each puff, knowing full well that he is enjoying a high-grade cigarette, a testament to his refined taste and discerning palate. The phrase "a high grade cigarette for the man who knows" encapsulates the essence of the Melachrino brand, appealing to the sophisticated and discerning gentleman of the era. The image is a captivating snapshot of a bygone era, where the simple pleasures of life, such as a fine cigarette, were cherished and savored.
