Broadway Depicting Hamelin Joyce Mercer Pied Piper Toffee
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "The Pied Piper of Hamelin" by renowned artist Joyce Mercer, dates back to circa 1920 and transports us to the magical world of Pascall Broadway Toffee. The image showcases the legendary Pied Piper, a figure from German folklore renowned for his ability to lead rats and children with his enchanting pipe. Mercer's interpretation of the Pied Piper is both whimsical and intriguing. The piper, dressed in vibrant colors and adorned with a feathered hat, captivates the attention of a group of children, each one reaching out to touch the sweet, irresistible toffee in his hand. The backdrop of the print is a picturesque village scene, complete with quaint houses, winding streets, and a clear blue sky. The connection between the Pied Piper and Pascall Broadway Toffee is not immediately apparent but is a clever marketing ploy that adds an element of mystery and intrigue to the advertisement. The toffee itself is not directly featured in the image, but the title "Broadway Toffee" is prominently displayed at the bottom, inviting viewers to indulge in the delightful confection. Joyce Mercer's artistic style perfectly complements the playful and enchanting nature of Pascall Broadway Toffee. The print's timeless appeal and the allure of the Pied Piper continue to captivate audiences, making it a cherished piece of advertising history.
