Guinness Toucan Advertising – A Classic Icon of 20th‑Century Marketing
The Guinness toucan first appeared in the 1930s as part of the celebrated advertising campaign created by John Gilroy for S.H. Benson. These colourful, humorous illustrations — featuring zoo animals balancing pints of Guinness — became some of the most recognisable adverts of the 20th century. The toucan, with its bright beak and effortless pint‑balancing act, quickly became the star of the series and remains a beloved symbol of the brand today. Modern enamel pins like this one continue that tradition, appealing to collectors of Guinness memorabilia and lovers of vintage advertising design.
