Title: Supermarket promotion, 1962 [Go to resource]
Description: The shelves of this supermarket are well stocked with Huntley & Palmers products including their latest gift tin 'Ocean Life'. This promotion coincided with Huntley & Palmers attendance at the British Trade Fair in Stockholm in 1962. The girl in the photograph was one of two Swedish girls employed to man the company's exhibition stand. When King Gustav of Sweden visited the trade exhibition on 22 May 1962, he stopped at the stand three times and remarked, 'Yes, I know Cornish Wafers'.
