Lot 286: An Assortment of Vintage Babycham and Barbican Brewery Advertising Ephemera

This lot comprises a collection of vintage brewery advertising ephemera, primarily focused on the Babycham brand. The group includes two large circular drip mats featuring a stylised yellow chamois mascot wearing a blue scarf, surrounded by a border of star motifs and repeating text that reads I’D LOVE A BABYCHAM. Centrally, the mats bear the text SWEET AND DRY. Four square and shaped cardboard coasters are included: one featuring two bottles and a coupe glass with a yellow chamois mascot; one with a bottle and coupe glass against a wavy blue and white background with the legend I’D LOVE A BABYCHAM; a blue-bordered square coaster with the mascot; and a yellow and blue square coaster with a local imprint for SUN INN MARSDEN. The collection also contains a rectangular advertising card for NEW BARBICAN ALCOHOL FREE LAGER featuring blue and white stripes, and a promotional card titled NOMINATE YOUR PUB BABYCHAM PUB OF THE YEAR 1982. The items are constructed from printed absorbent wood pulp and card.
