You’ve Come a Long Way, Baby

September 10, 2010 - February 27, 2011

Tobacco advertisements during the 20th century portrayed smoking as a stylish, medically safe alternative to nibbling on sweets, and as a symbol of female liberation. This exhibition of more than 200 print advertisements from the early 1900s through the 1980s investigates both the object and subject of women in cigarette advertising.
