Just in case that last pic creeped you out, here are a couple more jolly ads from the Strand Magazine (December 1927). A much more appropriate one for Bovril than the last one I posted. Birds Custard on the the other hand always seemed to produce attractive ads.
I like this old Ad. I deressed as the Bovril Man in stripped pajamas for the Guinness/Bovril Inter Hospitals Pilgrims Stroll in 1970. You can see pictures on : http://abitingchance.blogspot.com/
