Back when more than a fraction of a percent of the population smoked, there used to be PSAs about this on television. I'm not a hundred percent sure that my memory is correct, but I think Smokey the Bear got involved in the campaign.
I don't think that Smokey the Bear featured in PSAs for this in the UK.
Rupert the Bear, possibly, but not Smokey.
