Cigarette History

Cigarettes, Tobacco, Cigars were first used by the people of the pre-Columbian Americas. Native Americans apparently cultivated the tobacco plants and smoked it in pipes for medicinal and ceremonial purposes.

In the beginning, tobacco was produced mainly for pipe smoking, chewing, and snuff. Cigars didn't become popular until the early 1800s. Cigarettes, which had been around in crude form since the early 1600s, didn't become widely popular in the United States until after the Civil War, with the spread of "Bright" tobacco, a uniquely cured yellow leaf grown in Virginia and North Carolina. Cigarette sales surged again with the introduction of the "White Burley" tobacco leaf and the invention of the first practical cigarette making machine, sponsored by tobacco baron James Buchanan "Buck" Duke, in the late 1880s.

A little know fact is most early European physicians subscribed to the Native Americans belief that tobacco usage can be an effective medicine.

Cigarettes did not become popular until the middle of the 20th century. In 1954 the major U.S. tobacco companies had formed the Tobacco Industry Research Council. With counsel from TIRC, tobacco companies began mass-marketing filtered cigarettes and low-tar formulations that promised a "healthier" smoke. The public responded, and soon cigarette sales were booming.
