Yogi Bear Kellogg's Print Ads

Here's a lovely trio of Yogi Bear-centric Kellogg's print advertisements I discovered recently. All of them are from the early 1960s and depict Yogi Bear advertising Kellogg's cereal with a healthy amount of rhyming. Just take a look at this first image to see what I mean. It promotes not just Kellogg's products, but also the cost of food at that time, stating proudly that "food today takes less of your pay."

This second ad is a bit of a mouthful, and I mean that in the literal sense. Yogi's eating his own words, while the blurb at the bottom mentions that breakfast is a key part of a healthy day.



This final ad proves the previous entry true, as we see Yogi rollerskating after a hearty breakfast. And you've gotta love the "You'll go to town when breakfast is down" rhyme, contrived as it may be.
