Remember the post I did on the Trebor Mummies TV advert? Well here is a competition that was held in 'Jackpot' comic, in which you could win a Mummies T-shirt as shown on the cover of Jackpot above. I really love the look of these two T-shirt designs and certainly wish I saw this competition at the time. I wonder if any of the winners still have there T-shirts. Also as the last picture shows there was a free gift of a packet of Mummies with issues of 'Whizzer and Chips', 'Buster', and 'Jinty and Penny' - 'Try the taste of the Tomb'
The issue of Jackpot above is from 16th August 1980 issue 65.
Thanks to darren.
Brilliant, I'd love a T-Shirt like that! Wish I'd entered. Great Adverts.

It would be quite a museum if all these collectibles were ever kept under one roof!
ReplyDeleteI remember Mummies. Tasted vile, but I had to eat them because of the name!
ReplyDeleteHope you don't mind but I've turned tomb-robber and pinched your image for my blog - see http://monstermayhem.wordpress.com/2008/10/07/try-the-taste-from-the-tomb-trebor-mummies/ - but made sure I've given you a credit.
Love your blog. Keep up the great work.
