Detroit, Michigan • Episcopal Church via Woodward Ave — c. 1867
This garment reproduces a historical Murad Cigarettes holiday advertisement from the early 20th century, originally created as commercial promotional material during the golden age of illustrated print advertising.
The imagery reflects the visual language of its era—ornate typography, idealized figures, and seasonal symbolism—designed to associate consumer products with celebration, warmth, and tradition. These advertisements were never intended to endure; they were disposable by design, meant to be seen briefly and forgotten.
NOTED. preserves them anyway.
This piece is presented as archived material, not endorsement. The original artwork has been lightly restored and printed with a deliberately worn finish, allowing the passage of time to remain visible. Ink variation, texture, and subtle distressing are intentional, echoing the fragility of early printed ephemera.
Printed on a soft, heavyweight Comfort Colors garment for modern wearability while maintaining an archival tone.
Status: NOTED.
