when was the Marlboro man first used in advertising print or tv.?

1954. Wayne McLaren was the last one.

I met him at the same party where I met Bill Clinton in Little Rock, Arkansas. The man was shriveled, had lost a lung and told me the others had died of lung cancer. (Evidently there were a number of them, not just him.) He was very sick at the time, poor man.

He told me that they used to give them huge quantities of the cigarette free.
