Description

A bold typographic Guinness advertisement with large red lettering reading “A GUINNESS A DAY” above a cluster of seven freshly poured pints topped with creamy heads; the footer declares “GUINNESS IS GOOD FOR YOU.” The design relies on stark contrast—black stout, pale foam, and red type—for instant readability.

This is an early 1930s issue of the campaign, supported by the printed credit “Printed in Great Britain by John Waddington Ltd. Leeds” and the internal stock code GA/P1/219 in the margins.

Comment:

  • Classic interwar Guinness health-claim slogan (“Guinness is Good for You”) in a clean, high-impact layout.
  • Desirable seven-pints composition (one for each day), with strong pub-wall presence and minimal graphics.
  • Waddington, Leeds printer line and Guinness code GA/P1/219 add period authenticity and collectability versus later decorative repros.
