The large rectangular counter-card features a captivating chequerboard design that immediately draws the viewer's attention. In the top right corner, against a vibrant green background, we see an image of Father Christmas donning his iconic hat and beard while enjoying a cigarette. Contrasting against this festive image is a photograph of a man in a crisp white shirt gazing upwards towards Father Christmas, also indulging in his own cigarette. The text boldly states: "A man is always happy with? PLAYERs Weights". This clever play on words invites contemplation about what truly brings happiness to individuals. The bottom right corner showcases an enticing gift box of Players Weights Cigarettes adorned with imagery of both Santa Claus and a lighthouse.
