Edinburgh Zoo

Mounted One sheet The poster, titled "See the Guinness animals at Edinburgh Zoo," features a zookeeper photographing a group of animals that were part of a famous Guinness advertising campaign. Artist: The poster was created by English artist John Gilroy, who was responsible for the iconic "My Goodness, My Guinness!" advertising campaign. The zookeeper depicted in the ad is a caricature of Gilroy himself. Campaign: The campaign, which began in the 1930s, featured whimsical and anthropomorphic animals like a toucan, ostrich, and kangaroo interacting with the beer. A similar campaign was also used for the Dublin Zoo.
