Prince Albert's really must have felt they were on to something with their Pipe Appeal campaign. There seem to be a lot of those ads.

Another Pipe Appeal. Can't say a woman ever looked at me that way when I had a pipe in my face.

That girl looks too young for Mr. Smoothie. Did he crash a pajama party or something?

More PA Pipe Appeal. Is she looking at him with adoration, or wondering if he really knows how to read a map?

Pipe Appeal must have been a really successful ad campaign.

I can believe it was wildly successful.

Another Pipe Appeal. I don't think I could properly shoot a rifle with a pipe in my gob.

I'm going to run with the Pipe Appeal until there are no more! I'm kind of stuck on the meaning of this one. Is she giving him a medal for being such an appealing guy?

The medal is part of the "pin-up" thing. it does not make a lot of sense really, but I guess an ad doesn't have to. It just needs to sell things.
