One of the concept panels I sketched yesterday.

Gosh, every time I do some concept art, I get so excited about starting work on the actual comic sketches! 🩷 (But I still have the script to finish 😅)

Heardle 50s The daily musical intro guessing game that's 100% 50s.

I don't know why I knew this, but I recognized it immediately, but it's really hard to remember the names of instrumentals.
Didn't get the name after all that. .

What does UD stand for? : publicity booklet : United Dairies Ltd. : nd [c.1955] : cover. The booklet is undated and uncredited but the style is mid-1950s and must be prior to the 1959 merger. It has the feel of a publicity item potentially aimed at school projects, given the description of the product range, and this copy survives in a school project collection. It is very typical of the sort of thing I, as a '60s school pupil, used to write off to companies for! The cover does indeed show a teacher in a turquoise striped jacket pointed to the words "What does UD stand for? on a chalkboard and a puzzled pupil with pigtails and a red top looking up. The left and figure shaded background is in yellow.

What does UD stand for? : publicity booklet : United Dairies Ltd. : nd [c.1955] : back cover. 

The back cover has this simple sketch of what appears to be a modern retail shop and facade. The shop has a single plate glass window allowing a view of the counter, counter assistant and stacked products. A satisfied customer is seen leaving the shop.

United Dairies shops had, originally, used white tiled finishes to aid cleaning and promote the importnat impression of cleanliness and hygiene.

What does UD stand for? ca.1955 publicity booklet issued by United Dairies, probably for school projects, & that makes play on the initials. As well as doorstep deliveries the company had a chain of retail shops - a very modern & up-to-date example shown here. #1950s #history
