Cadbury Coco Cub ‘Henrietta Fussy Feathers’ 1930s Britains Lead Advertising Collectable

Product Description

A wonderfully characterful piece of British advertising and toy collecting history, this 1930s Cadbury Coco Cub Henrietta ‘Fussy Feathers’ captures the charm of one of Cadbury’s most beloved promotional ranges.

Produced by Britains Ltd for Cadbury Bournville, Coco Cubs were miniature hand painted lead figures given away in tins of cocoa during the 1930s. Created to delight children with their colourful personalities, each character had its own name and distinctive appearance, making the collection a fascinating part of British confectionery and advertising history.

Henrietta ‘Fussy Feathers’ is a particularly charming example, featuring her recognisable headscarf, walking stick and vibrant original painted details. Over the decades, the paintwork has naturally mellowed, creating an authentic aged patina that adds to the story and individuality of this rare little figure.

Today, Cadbury Coco Cubs are highly sought after by collectors for their connection to Bournville heritage, early promotional memorabilia and the craftsmanship of Britains miniature lead figures.

A delightful addition to a vintage advertising collection, antique toy display or cabinet of curiosities, Henrietta brings together nostalgia, craftsmanship and a fascinating glimpse into Britain’s past.

With plenty of personality, Henrietta is a wonderful addition to any Cococub collection.
