Tobacco cards were included in packages of cigarettes until around the mid-twentieth century. They were used to stiffen the packages and as an early form of advertising. Marketed as collector’s items they were meant to encourage brand loyalty. This card is part of the Murad Cigarettes College Series which featured scenes taking place at various North American universities.
