One of the original Marlboro men has died.

Do you remember those classic cigarettes adverts of cowboys riding horses,well one of the original Marlboro Men, who epitomized a rugged cowboy in the cigarette adverts, has died aged 85.
Darrell Winfield passed away from an unspecified 'lengthy illness' at his ranch in Riverton, Wyoming, while in hospice care.
The real-life rancher was working on a cattle farm in 1968 when he was first discovered by the Leo Burnett advertising agency and transformed into a world-recognized model.RIP
