Ive looked and looked and can't find the question/answers here, though I'd bet it's been covered. I've been looking through Ever Ready memorobilia and am dying to find out if anyone knows: 1) is the "trade mark face" guy on early ads a real person, or a character? 2) either way, does anyone know what his name might be? 3) I guess the same questions to those apply to later faces in ads. It would not surprise me if more than one member knows the answer to these questions lol. And by the way, I have no idea myself.
His name is "Yankee" Gem. http://theshaveden.com/forums/threads/ever-ready-trademark-evolution.47134/
Now that's just awesome. I've seen that ad and never caught on. Thanks for the post! I love stuff like this lol.
