A lovely little tobacco poster for Viceroy cigarettes - in very good condition, and measuring 9 x 15 inches.
The piece is unsigned and not dated, but we estimate it to be roughly circa 1920.
PLEASE NOTE THAT ALL OF OUR POSTERS AND PRINTS ARE ORIGINAL NON-REPRODUCTION VINTAGE PIECES
THANK YOU!
Additional information about Viceroy was provided to me by an e-bay member:

"Viceroy cigarettes are made by Brown & Williamson, which was owned by
British American Tobacco, and, since 2004, by Reynolds American Inc., a
joint venture between the U.S. branch of British American Tobacco and R.J.
Reynolds Tobacco Company.

"Viceroy originated in the U.S. in 1936 as the
world's first cork-tipped filter cigarette. In 1952 it was the first brand
to add a cellulose acetate filter which established a new industry
standard. In 1953, Viceroy Filter Kings were introduced. In 1990, Viceroy
Box Kings and Lights Box Kings were introduced on the U.S. market, followed
by Viceroy Ultra Lights Kings and Ultra Lights 100's in 1992 and New
Viceroy 100's box styles, and Viceroy Menthol in 2000. All Viceroy styles
changed to a more contemporary packaging on packs and cartons without
changes to the product blend.
As of December of 2007, Viceroy is no longer
made."
