Summary
Print shows a pretty young woman at a tobacco counter besieged by men offering her flowers, jewelry, and a heart on a platter, while a line of soldiers extends out the door and recedes into the background; under the eyes of a disapproving sergeant shown at left, the girl slips a pack of cigarettes to a handsome young aviator in a fur-lined coat at right.
