This is an absolute freaking gem. Bobster1985, who uploaded this as a vid on flickr writes:

A fascinating bit of television history, as the Brooklyn Dodgers are used as a backdrop in this Lucky Strike cigarette commercial. I couldn’t tell if this was filmed in Ebbets Field or elsewhere, perhaps some sharp-eyed Dodger expert can offer his insight. The same is true of the players – a player wearing uniform number 12 is seen tossing the ball, but a check of the Baseball Almanac doesn’t show any player with that number on the ’56 roster. There was a first baseman named Frank Kellert who played 22 games on the 1955 Dodgers, backing up Gil Hodges, so perhaps that’s him. At the end of the commercial, a Dodger player signs autographs; he isn’t identified but he looks like shortstop Pee Wee Reese. This was made at a time when many celebrities endorsed cigarettes (including Humphrey Bogart, who eventually died of cancer). Cigarette commercials were finally banned from television in 1970. Can you believe they once had cigarette vendors wandering through the stands??
