About the series
From 1927, Old Gold Cigarettes produced a short-lived, two-issue comic series by Clare Briggs, titled after the brand's iconic slogan. This promotional comic, "Not a Cough in a Carload," used Briggs' warm, folksy cartooning to sell cigarettes in a pre-health-awareness era. It stands as a quirky artifact of early advertising comics, blending brand marketing with the popular newspaper strip style of the day.
