Cat Food Again & Again
:: Posted by Sid Smith on Sun., Jun 16, 2013
My thanks to Sean Hollenhors for sending me this undated advert for Cat Food. Almost certainly a photoshop fake but with copy such as "taking tabby mountain by flavour" what’s not to like?



DGMLive visitor Royston adds "Hmm. The Seventies were strange enough times that the Purina Eno ad could actually be genuine. Judging by the expiry date on the coupon, it’s from 1974 (or purports to be), which is of course consistent with the album references. Well, it would be, wouldn’t it?

For those who want a copy for their wall or simply in order to read the text, there’s a hi-res version. "
