Marlboro
is a brand of cigarette made by Philip Morris. It is most famous for its billboard advertisements of the
Marlboro
Man. It is currently the best selling cigarette brand in the world.
Philip Morris, a London-based cigarette manufacturer, created a New York subsidiary in 1902 to sell several of its cigarette brands, including
Marlboro
. By 1924 they were advertising
Marlboro
as a woman's cigarette based on the slogan "Mild As May".
The brand was sold in this capacity until World War II when the brand falte
Red
and was temporarily removed from the market. At the end of the war three brands;
Camel
,
Lucky
Strike
, and
Chesterfield
surfaced and established a firm hold on the cigarette market.
During the 1950s Reader's Digest magazine published a series of articles that linked smoking with lung cancer. Philip Morris, and the other cigarette companies took notice and each began to market filte
Red
Cigarettes
. The new
Marlboro
with a filte
Red
tip was launched in 1955.
The brand is named after Great
Marlboro
ugh Street, the location of its original London factory.
Criticisms and Allegations against Philip Morris-Altria
There have been several cases about this topic, even movies based on what happens behind tobacco companies (The Insider), and even shocking events like a visit to the Philip Morris headquarters of a group of lung and throat cancer victims (See Michael Moore and The Awful Truth tv show).
The Insider - Jeffrey Wigand
The movie The Insider is based in the campaign against Jeffrey Wigand, employee of Brown & Williamson (B&W), makers of Kool and Sir Walter Raleigh
Cigarettes
. Wigand, Vice President for Research and Development, is fi
Red
(September 1993) after he advocates for the company to remove coumarin [1], an additive similar to rat poison, which is known to cause tumors in the livers of mice.
He is asked by 60 minutes producer Lowell Bergman to assist as an analyst of Philip Morris documents that Bergman has received anonymously
In April 1994, the CEO of the seven tobacco companies testified before Congress that "nicotine is not addictive", Including William Campbell, then President & CEO of Philip Morris.
In February 1996, 60 Minutes finally airs the Wigand interview, where Wigand talks about his work inside B&W.
Taken from the 60 Minutes interview:
"Wigand: [in office interview with Wallace] - They were looking to
Red
uce the hazards within
Cigarettes
,
Red
uce the carcinogenic components or the list of the carcinogens that were within the tobacco products.
- Wallace: They talked about carcinogens too?
- Wigand: They talked about carcinogens."
Later he says that the idea of a safer cigarette was later dismissed. And that glycerol, one harmless ing
Red
ient, changes its chemistry when burned forms a substance called acrolein, which acts like a carcinogen.
Wigand sent a memo to B&W president, indicating that he could not in conscience continue with coumarin in a product that they now knew, have documentation that is lung-specific carcinogen.
"- Wigand: I sent the document forward to Sandefur. I was told that we would continue working on a substitute and we weren't going to remove it because it would impact sales and that, that was his decision."

Advertising campaigns
"Mild as May" is the advertising campaign used by
Marlboro
Cigarettes
before they added a filte
Red
tip to their product. The product was endorsed by Mae
West
and marketed towards women.
One of the features of
Marlboro
Cigarettes
at the time was a
Red
tip, which hid lipstick marks that women would leave while smoking.
This campaign was dropped in favor of a
More
masculine
Marlboro
Man campaign.
In the early 1960s Philip Morris invented "
Marlboro
Country" and distilled their manly imagery into a rugged cowboy known as the "
Marlboro
Man."
Marlboro
quickly gained market share and saw their sales increase 5,000 percent within 8 months of the ad campaign's premiere.
Marlboro
is also well known for its sponsorship of motor racing. The Penske cars in the IRL Indycar series currently run in
Marlboro
's distinctive
Red
and white colours. In Formula One,
Marlboro
now sponsors Ferrari, but for many years was the backer of McLaren. Various drivers have also been affiliated with the brand in the past, including Jenson Button, who received some funding during his Formula 3 campaign of 1999. The Peugeot World Rally team has also run with the iconic
Marlboro
livery.
