Robert Goulet passed away this morning (10/30) while awaiting a lung transplant at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles after being found last month to have a rare form of pulmonary fibrosis. He had remained in good spirits even as he waited for the transplant, said Vera Goulet, his wife of 25 years. "Just watch my vocal cords," she said he told doctors before they inserted a breathing tube. He was the only son of French Canadian parents, Joseph Georges Andre Goulet and the former Jeanette Gauthier. Though he was born in Massachusetts, his parents moved back to Canada just a few months after his birth. He gained stardom in 1960 with "Camelot," the Lerner and Loewe musical that starred Richard Burton as King Arthur and Julie Andrews as his Queen Guenevere. In his last performance Sept. 20 in Syracuse, N.Y., the crooner was backed by a 15-piece orchestra as he performed the one-man show "A Man and his Music." Robert Goulet won a 1968 Tony Award for Best Actor in a Musical for this performance in " The Happy Time". He was 73.

In 1952, opera singer Margaurite Piazza made this commercial for Camel cigarettes. In 1968, she endured three operations on her face to remove cancer, and, in 1973, she was treated for cervical and uterine cancer.

Now this is pretty strange. Camel News Caravan was the first regular television news program in the United States, running from 1949 to 1956. And, as this clip from Granada's 1985 documentary series 'Television' shows, they had their own unique way of presenting stories they had no footage for. This is so shockingly amateur, it almost makes Fox News look like a proper news service...almost.

At least they did in this 1949 ad. This is about as dated as a commercial can get!

Statistics don't lie: Doctors prefer Camel cigarettes. At least that's what this very dated ad says.

This is a part of the Arabian Knights if I remember rightly. Chuck, Nancy and Kaboobie the flying camel, oh, and not to forget Genie.

Smoking gives people pleasure. Pleasure enhances your disposition. Therefore smoking is good for you. That was the logic Rock Hudson used to promote Camel cigarettes in this 1955 ad.

It just don't seem right to be able to bum a cigarette from your doctor. Different times I guess.
