Phillips Delicious Soup Pirate

Phillips Delicious Soup Pirate

I find this undated Phillips Delicious advertisement (possibly in the late 1920's or 1930's?) just so darned cute! This young little lady (dressed as a pirate) is holding a can of "Pepper Pot" soup & they used a Phillips Delicious cardboard box as the "treasure chest." Inside you can see a can of "Vegetable" & also a can of "Chicken Gumbo" soup.

What's interesting: notice the cardboard box is actually labelled for their "Tomato Juice" & not for soup.

This is Carol McCabe, daughter of the photographer George Levarn.

I'd love to know the actual date Phillips ran this advertisement.
