"Take Tea and See!" (1961 print ad)
How simple and refreshing!
Let's not try to sell a specific brand of tea, instead, let's just concentrate on selling the idea of tea...
...Bravo, Tea Council of the U.S.A.!As to the artwork in this full-page 1961 magazine ad, darned if it doesn't look to me so very reminiscent of the characters in William Steig's 'The Lonely Ones'.
- - Though by the '60's, Steig's drawing style had changed pretty radically from the work he'd done twenty-odd years earlier.
Can anyone out there identify this ad's unknown artist?

I just bought a small child size OLD teapot that has letters on both sides "TAKE TEA AND SEE". So this wasn't a certain company, apparently just promoting Tea?
