It’s all Andy Warhol’s fault that I’m hooked on soupy pop art stuff. The iconic Campbell’s soup cans continue to appear on jewelry, accessories, even fishing lures, and they just keep calling my name. (Click on each image for more info at Etsy.)
“M’m, m’m good. M’m, m’m good. Campbell’s chicken soup is m’m, m’m good!”
Happy first Poetry Friday of 2011!
Since January is National Soup Month, I think it only fitting that we welcome in the new year with a savory soup serenade. While others may have their black eyed peas and collard greens, we believe in soup soup soup for good luck, good health, and good sense.
You probably recognize the pudgy, rosy-cheeked pair perched on the moon as the Campbell’s Kids. Created in 1904 by Philadelphia illustrator Grace Wiederseim Drayton, these American icons have never lost their appeal as the most successful soup pushers in advertising history. As a child, I loved them just as much as all the yummy soups that came out of those famous red and white cans.
