alice-versary-guinness-1959

July 23, 2013

From 1933, Guinness published a special limited edition booklet; sent to doctor's surgeries each Christmas- to promote the idea that "Guinness was Good For You". Designed by the advertising agency, S H Benson, each booket was beautifully illustrated, designed and printed, with soft and attractive chromolithography. This one is from Christmas, 1959 and will be of interest to collectors of Alice and Lewis Carroll memorabilia, as well as fans of fine printing, illustration and book design.
