“Hello! I’m Mr Turnip” toilet soap advertisements from Mickey Mouse Weekly

Two cut-out paper advertisements clipped from Mickey Mouse Weekly. Both carry the headline “Hello! I’m Mr Turnip” and promote a 5-inch Mr Turnip toilet-soap figure and its miniature television-set-style box. The copy describes Mr Turnip as having “come off the TV screen” and invites readers to ask for him at their chemist. The reverse sides retain unrelated Mickey Mouse Weekly comic-strip printing.
