I don’t think minors could buy cigarettes in 1975.

Yes they could. I occasionally bought cigarettes for my dad from 1967 to 1977 before I turned 18 in 1978. BTW, I could buy alcohol at 18 back then, legally.

No, but I could go to the 7-11 with a note from my Mom and buy a pack of cigarettes.

Besides, being a slave to addiction isn’t liberty. And it certainly wasn’t very liberating to the children that were turned into addicts.

We sure could. It wasn’t legal but hardly anybody enforced it. 1975 was pre-smokenazi.

I don’t think minors could buy cigarettes in 1975 Not legally. But it could be done most any store no questions asked.
Occasionally some store owner would get caught (or his employee).

Sure a child could buy cigs in 1975 and 1976. While in CT we often sent the kids to the corner store to buy smokes. They loved to go because they got a quarter to buy snack cakes as well as the cigs.

I don’t think minors could buy cigarettes in 1975. They could in 1965. I used to walk down to the drug store and buy 'em for my mom.
I wasn't a minor in 1975, so I can't talk to that.

"don’t think minors could buy cigarettes in 1975." When I was a little kid in the 70's, I couldn't tell you how many times I'd be helping my dad in the garden and he'd send me to the corner store for a pouch of Levi Garret. If I'd been particularly good, he'd give me an extra $0.25 for a pack of baseball cards.

Not legally but i bought them when I was 12. I could get away with it because I was 6-0 and weighed 150.
