Guinness Ad #43: Painting the Boat

November 20, 2010 By Jay Brooks

guinness-toucan
Our 43rd Guinness poster by John Gilroy features a man lifting up a very large boat in order to paint the underside. The boat has “GIGFY” on it’s bow, which I assume stands for “Guinness is good for you” although the slogan for the ad is “Guinness for Strength.”
