Classic Cream of Wheat Advertising

Edward V. Brewer 1923 The World's Fare
Edward V. Brewer 1923 The World’s Fare

Grapefruit Moon Gallery will be exhibiting original Cream of Wheat advertising illustrations at Red Wing Framing Gallery October 10-November 2, 2008. Featuring work from the likes of N.C. Wyeth, Jessie Willcox Smith, and St Paul’s own Edward V. Brewer, the Emery Mapes-led campaign depicted the Cream of Wheat brand in the domestic space, insisting on the uniquely American protectionist instinct with slews of young children needing a hot breakfast from Rastus, the African American chef.
