Item History
This badge was produced in the UK as a limited-edition promotional marketing item linked to the beloved “Tipps Family” chimpanzee advertising campaigns run by Brooke Bond PG Tips tea. These famous commercials aired from the 1950s all the way through the 1990s, making the chimp characters a massive part of British pop culture history. Badges like this were typically given out as promotional prizes, merchandise rewards, or distributed directly to grocery stockists.
