 Campbell’s Soups featuring a Campbell Soup Kid

“The Saturday Evening Post,” July 3, 1920.

Cartoonist Grace Drayton drew Campbell Soup Kids in 1904 and they soon became the advertising mascot of the Campbell Soup Company. The kids were popular almost immediately, leading to the production of dolls, cookbooks, cards, plates, T-shirts, and many other items fashioned in their likeness. Grace Drayton (1878-1936) was an illustrator of children’s books, fashion pages, and magazine covers. She was one of the first and most successful American female cartoonists.
