This print showcases an advertisement for Coopers seeds, dating back to 1936. Created by Cecil Dawes, this vibrant and eye-catching advert promotes the high-quality vegetable seeds offered by N Cooper & Co, a renowned seed merchant based in Poona (modern-day Pune), India. Targeted towards the British colonial community, this advertisement emphasizes the proven merit of Coopers Seeds for both market and home gardeners. The image features an array of colorful vegetables including beetroot, cabbage, peas, and sweet corn - all representing the diverse range of seeds available from this reputable company. The design of this ad reflects the graphic design trends prevalent in the 1930s with its bold colors and attention-grabbing typography. It not only appeals to nature enthusiasts but also evokes a sense of nostalgia for a time when gardening was considered an essential part of daily life. Published in "The Civil and Military Gazette". Annual in 1936, this advertisement symbolizes more than just commercial promotion. It represents a significant era marked by imperialism and British influence over India during that period.
