#8: A Pack Holder
Today, we are well aware of the health risks of smoking, but back in the 1950s, smoking just one cigarette at a time was considered dull and inefficient. It was in this era of coolness that this scandalous invention emerged, revolutionizing the way smokers indulged in their vice. This remarkable gadget was not just a novelty but a dream come true for chain smokers, enabling them to puff through an entire pack without a pause. Suddenly, the fantasy of non-stop smoking became an exciting, smoky reality!
Instead of a health warning, this contraption deserves to be accompanied by a death certificate. The lady captured in the photograph is none other than the stunning model, Frances Richards. If she continued down this reckless path, her radiant beauty would have been as fleeting as a sunset, fading away before she knew it.
