I believe that was Maxwell House. I was looking for the kind rather than the brand. Could be Maxwell House is that kind but the brand in question is definetly the kind that is correct. :cool: <br />Think Sweedish lady.

Wayne McLaren, who posed for some promotional photographs on behalf of Marlboro in 1976, succumbed to lung cancer at age 51 on 22 July 1992.<br />Folgers was indeed mountain grown. Not much of Colombia isn't mountains.

Ob Are you asking if Christine Feld, aka Virginia Christine has passed away?<br /><br />dastardly, to my knowledge the original Marlboro man did not smoke. Whether he is living or dead I do not know. Many atheletes in the 50's endorsed products they did not use. When it became known the endorsements were dropped. I guess the same thing happened in the case of Marlboro...<br /><br />Spinner, \is it animal mineral or vegetable?
