The above sign, a tea advertisement created for J. Lyons and Co., uses vibrant, complimentary colours to catch the viewer's eye. The contrasting orange and blue hues are both vibrant values with surprising intensity.
Lyon's Tea, in terms of sales, was most popular during the 1940's and '50's due to their support of the war efforts, leading me to believe that this advertisement was created during the mid-1940's.
J. Lyons and Co. was founded in 1887 as a spin-off from Salmon & Gluckstein tobacco company.
