Heinz Baked Beans : More Beans

1950s advert for that staple of the English breakfast… Heinz Baked Beans.

Advert 1957

Overview

This 1957 ad by Young & Rubicam endorses the quality of the Heinz brand, with baked beans being piled onto several plates of a typical English breakfast. Not enough beans though - as a chirpy looking lad asks for more! Simple but effective. Another example of the Young & Rubicam Heinz advertisements can be found in ‘Heinz Tomato Ketchup: Fish Patties’.
