Modern Publicity 1959 – 60. Illustrated Mid century Art, Advertising and Graphics Part 2
Happy Monday everyone. Here is part two of the vintage graphics from Modern Publicity annual for 1959 -60. Some wonderful movement in this selection of illustrations and I love this trendy lady out shopping with her wire wheeled basket.
A few light hearted cartoon characters to bring part two to a close.
I like the skipping toast girl and the farmer waiting for an egg for his breakfast (pity the ad’s for smoking though)

Oh my goodness… those ducks near the top totally look like your work.
Thanks Joy, that’s a great compliment as I’m forever aspiring to be more 1960 ish in my work : )
What on earth is the man balancing on a tree trunk being cut through by a woodpecker advertising???? Great pics though, as always!!
I think by the looks of it, it could be saying beware of dodgy insurance salesmen or something along those lines. What do you think ?
That’s a much more sanitary idea than the one I was thinking of!!! I was thinking it might be for something like Immodium to stop upset tums!!!!
Lol it just shows how other people’s minds work !
