Description
Full color 9 1/2″ x 13 1/2″ ad from their Nursery Rhyme series, this one having a different version as to what happened to Humpty Dumpty. In this ad we see Humpty Dumpty already starting to tumble from his perch on a stone wall as a maiden goes walking by with a huge platter of Red Jell-O. The text says that “Humpty Dumpty, sitting too high, Watched a maid eating Jell-O stroll by, It looked so delicious, he loved it so well, He reached down to taste some – and that’s how he fell”.
