Title: Infant food advert, 1841-1846 [Go to resource]
Description: This early advertising was almost certainly initiated by George Palmer. He was ambitious and forward thinking and wanted to rapidly expand the business from a small town bakery into a world-class 'biscuit manufactory'. There are a number of clues to the date of this advert; firstly the company name is Huntley and Palmer relating to the first partnership created between Joseph Huntley and George Palmer in 1841 and secondly the manufactory is at London Street rather than the King's Road factory which opened in 1846.
