Yes, I remember that logo. It was used by a trade organization called the "Electric Service League" to promote "rural electrification" here (eastern Canada) in the 60's. Seems to me there were posters in our electrical shop windows and decals we put on the shop trucks.
How many of you remember the "Red Seal Wiring" promotion from the same era?

Paul,it's not lost, it's still fiercely alive in my mind(a child of the late 50's and 60's)I remember 99% of these ads including the electrical one. These are great!

I was a child of the late 60s/70s, so seeing some old British commercials of that time brings back memories for me.
But I love watching these older commercials. They seem to have a charm all their own, and a sense of enthusiasm and "Hey, the world's going to be a better place in the not-too-distant future."
Paul, I think what it was about them old adverts, was that they had a certain amount of honesty, with them. They didn't make rash statements, like ad- agencies these days. Love any sort of old ads, TV car ads are my favourite.
