This month's feature...
In April of 1950, The Camel Screen Guild Theater treated radio audiences to "The Cowboy and the Lady" - a romantic comedy adapted from the 1938 film starring Gary Cooper and Merle Oberon. Like many shows of the golden age of radio, it featured Hollywood voices spinning a tale of love, laughter, and culture clash between a high-society lady and a rodeo cowboy. But just as famous as the stories were the sponsors who kept the microphones humming.
On that night, Camel cigarettes were the real scene-stealers. The announcer confidently proclaimed, “In a coast-to-coast test of hundreds of people who smoked only Camels for thirty days, not one single case of throat irritation was reported! Test Camels in your T-Zone—T for taste, T for throat—and see how mild a cigarette can be.” Later, as if to prove it, he told listeners that people whose voices were their fortune—opera stars, sportscasters, comedians—swore by Camels. And to top it all off, he closed the show with this gem: “According to a survey of over one hundred thirteen thousand doctors, more doctors smoke Camels than any other cigarette!”
Hearing those claims today might make us chuckle—and cough a little too –but they’re a colorful reminder of the era. And the play itself? Still as funny, romantic, and full of charm as it was back then. So light up your imagination (and only your imagination, please) and enjoy "The Cowboy and the Lady!"
