The following advertisements date back to the early 1900's. They are wonderful examples of our history, highlighting an era that evokes so many happy memories when life was not so complicated and little things meant so much to everyone.
Advert from 'Good Things', Goodall, Backhouse & Co, 1901.
A full page advert for Ovaltine from 1937.
This very nostalgic advert is from 1935.
I remember well the HMV television my parents had - this advert is from 1950. They had so much character, unlike the big screens of today which dominate our living rooms.
An advert from 1949 for one of my favourite chocolate bars. It's a shame they are no longer in the old foil wrappings!
Another advert from 1949, but I have to confess to not ever having tasted this. Does anyone have any memories?
An advert from 1954.
An old advert for Hovis bread from August 14th 1929.
