<p>Leaflet or magazine insert printed in black and yellow advertising Mazawattee cocoa.The image shows an ornate, small sail boat landing numerous barrels of cocoa at what looks like a London dock. A young woman in a dress, jewellery, armbands and headress is shaking hands with Britannia, shield and flowers on the quayside behind her. It probably dates from the 1910s. Other versions of this exist with slightly different text on the back. This has additional details of the prices of the tins and states that it is "Sold by all first-class grocers throughout the kingdom" at the bottom of the text.</p>
