A year before the Miss Muffet campaign, Wrigley's was already enchanting readers with Mother Goose. This full-color, full-page spread from the September 1927 Ladies Home Journal features the Crooked Man in vivid storybook illustration. The reverse carries a Nairn Gold Seal Inlaid Linoleum Flooring advertisement — a charming domestic pairing that captures the warmth of late 1920s home life.

We carry several variations of this Wrigley's Mother Goose campaign from different magazines — browse our shop to compare and collect.
