Just wondering how long Lucille Ball smoked? In later years her voice was so raspy and rough. Does anyone know what cigarettes she smoked? thanks for all of your help!

I Love Lucy was sponsered by Phillip Morris so I know Lucy smoked Phillip Morris cigarettes at the time that show was on the air.

I also read on one of the threads that she and Desi would take a car drive in a convertible with the top down and she would stand and yell at the top of her voice. That with the smoking didn't help her voice when she got older.
