Hi, I have no idea where to start looking on community site for the people who may be able to send me in the right direction.
I have a vinage Cadbury's Cocoa advertising card and have searched the web to find information or a picture of it. Dead end.
I had a Van Houten's one that was a bit of a rare one and was able to find their site and get info on it, but the Cadbury bit is a dead end at this stage. Can anyone help out with directions or advice.
Thanks

By Googling the first words of the advert I was able to find
http://www.bl.uk/catalogues/evanion/Record.aspx?EvanID=024-000003115&ImageIndex=0 ;suggests a date of 1885
A similarly worded advert appears in
"Mrs. Maclurcan's cookery book [electronic resource] : a collection of practical recipes specially suitable for Australia" published 1899
