Two children with a secret — and chocolate behind their backs.

Ganong Bros. Limited has been Canada's oldest family-owned chocolate company since 1873, and by the 1950s their Delecto chocolates were the Mother's Day gift of choice. This full-page color advertisement captures that perfectly: two children barely concealing a box of Ganong's behind their backs, the tagline reading "What Are You Giving Mother? ...The Finest in the Land." A rare Canadian find, already trimmed and in excellent condition.

A sweet piece for a kitchen, sitting room, or vintage candy collection. An especially charming Mother's Day, birthday, or housewarming gift for anyone who loves nostalgic illustrated Canadiana.
