Description:
1950 Marvelous Vintage Mid-Century Ad- Savvy Santa offers Sophisticated Lady a Delicious Box of Caley's Chocolates! Simply Sublime Original Vintage Mid-Century Ad taken from a December, 1950 issue of The Illustrated London News Magazine. Delightful bit of British Whimsy is seen here in spectacular color ad, full of the uniquely chic witty glamour of the Mid-Century. Santa arrives with a kiss, a sack full of goodies, and a box of delectable Caley's Chocolates and offers them for the amusement of a very sophisticated lady in a strapless gold and navy creation. Wonderful vivid color graphic by unknown artist, is filled with charming period dash, with just a touch of naughtiness to give it extra flair. Note the short, sleek coiffure of the woman and the plush panda bear peeking out of the sack. Another prime example of the sophistry, humor and style of British advertising art of this inimitably splendid era. Ad measures 11 x 16- condition is bright and clean in person. Just a darling bit of vintage Christmas style sure to delight any viewers. Note the fawncy quality of the chocolates- marzipan, montelimart, hazlenut and truffle!
