This poster is a 1980s reprint of wartime Cadburys advertising. In summer 1940, Cadbury’s were assuring customers that their chocolate biscuits were available in all stores. Three years later, they ran adverts in Picture Post magazine, saying that supplies were severely limited and asking customers to remember that growing children needed the nutrition from milk chocolate the most.

Dimensions: 23.5 in x 17 in (60 cm x 43 cm)

As raw materials were in short supply, chocolate manufactures were forced to substitute products and improvise ingredients. For instance, Cadbury Dairy Milk as withdrawn in 1941 when the government banned manufacturers from using fresh milk. In its place there was Ration Chocolate, made with dried skimmed milk powder.

These posters are sent as unframed. They will be sent in a cardboard-backed envelope for protection.
