EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage print titled "The First Cigar: The Result, 1910" captures a significant moment in a young boy's life. In this monochrome image, we see the exterior scene of a sunny day where the boy is sitting on a bench. With curiosity and perhaps peer pressure, he has taken his first puff from a cigar. However, the reaction to this newfound experience is evident as the boy coughs uncontrollably. This powerful visual representation highlights not only the innocence of childhood but also serves as an important reminder of addiction and its consequences. Taken in the early 20th century, during an era when smoking was more socially acceptable than today, this photograph provides us with valuable insight into historical attitudes towards tobacco use. It showcases how even at such a tender age, individuals were exposed to harmful habits that could potentially shape their future choices. Preserved through cinematography techniques and presented in black and white tones characteristic of that time period, this stereoscope print offers viewers an immersive glimpse into past customs and societal norms surrounding smoking. As part of The Print Collector collection curated by Heritage Images, it stands as both an artistic piece capturing human emotions and reactions while serving as documentation for cultural historians interested in exploring our evolving relationship with addictive substances throughout history.
