Maybe it's just me, but I see a possible subtle attempt at advertising for smoking.

You guys don't see this in the context it was made; "The Flintstones" wasn't originally made as a children's cartoon. It was a prime time sitcom. And in an age where people didn't know the effects of smoking, this sorta thing was totally normal. Now, with the addition of Pebbles and such, it became more of a kids show, but these are before that time. Spot the animation differences. Cool find, though.
