Vintage cadburys ad

 Approximately 2 years ago I blogged about an old vintage ad that looked like it had been uncovered in Pearse Station. 

 

I write today to give an update on it.  The old ad seems to have been removed or else maybe covered up with a copy/reproduction of the old ad. 

 

I am not sure about it to be honest.  I can see the join lines where it is 3 pieces made into one which I don't like.  I still think they should have just preserved the old from further deterioration "as is".

 

Have a read of my original blog here. 

What do you think?

 

Old Cadbury's ad - what a treasure!

Pearse Street Train Station has been undergoing renovation. 

And in the process it seems that an old Cadbury ad has been uncovered.



 

How cool is this?

In my opinion it is a fabulous piece of social history.

I love the antithesis of the old sign and the big modern sign.

 

I really hope Pearse Station/Cadburys decide to leave it on display. 

IF it was my train station I would make this a feature - I'd put a big chunky silver or black box frame all around it with glass on the front protecting the sign.


Update:
2 years later, see here what has been done about this sign.

What are your thoughts?!
