Description
Full color 9 1/2″ x 13″ ad for their Crisp, London Dry Gin. There is a picture of a glass filled with ice, a lime and a drink made from Gilbey’s Gin on a shiny surface in front of a bottle of Gilbey’s from which the cap has been removed. There is a sun shown in the background of the picture that looks so hot and uncomfortable that you find yourself reaching out to see if the glass is actually as cool as it looks. The headline claims that “The sun never sets on Gilbey’s Gin“ and the text explains that Gilbey’s has been called for in all four corners of the globe since 1982. This ad is larger than my scanner bed so the outer edges of the ad will not be visible in the scanned view.
