It was 1958 when J. Walter Thompson's Donald Gilles came up with the line, "Have a break. Have a KitKat." Fifty-six years later, JWT London has found a fun new way to illustrate the line—with a half-finished billboard.

Awards bait? Sure. A creative wank? Perhaps. But you have to admit, it's clever.
