- Description
Poster advertising a woollen product shows a smiling man in a camel-coloured overcoat, with a tartan scarf draped around his neck. He wears a shirt and tie, and holds a pipe in his right hand. The Mosgiel logo is at top left, and black Scottie terrier mascot is at lower left.
The verso has an all-over pattern with the logo of Fred W Carr, Carr Advertising, Auckland.
Date estimated from the fact that the man is holding a pipe, popular in the 1950s. See also the note about designer Fred W Carr, at https://longwhitekid.wordpress.com/category/fred-carr/. This suggests a date range around mid-1940s to mid-1950s.
