EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Cadburys Cocoa, Strength and Staying Power, 1888" takes us back to the vibrant advertising scene of 19th century Britain. The creator of this masterpiece remains unknown, but their artistic prowess shines through in every detail. The image captures a group of determined men on a rugby ground, ready for an intense match. Clad in sportswear typical of the Victorian era, these rugged players exude strength and determination. The referee stands tall in his striped attire, prepared to officiate the game with fairness. Prominently displayed is the bold lettering that reads "Cadburys Cocoa". This advertisement cleverly associates the consumption of cocoa with qualities such as strength and staying power - attributes highly valued by athletes and individuals alike during that time period. The illustration itself is taken from The Graphic, an illustrated weekly newspaper published between July and December 1888. It serves as a testament to how newspapers played a vital role in disseminating information and promoting various trades during this era. As we gaze upon this intriguing piece from history curated by The Print Collector at Heritage Images, we are transported back to a time when advertising relied on artistry rather than commercialism. It reminds us of both the rich heritage behind Cadbury's cocoa brand and the enduring legacy of sportsmanship embodied by these remarkable rugby players.
