Beer In Ads #1069: Pilsner Urquell In The Atomic Age

January 12, 2014 By Jay Brooks 1 Comment


Sunday’s ad is our third postcard for Pilsner Urquell, from what looks to be the 1950s based on the style of illustration on this postcard. This one shows a dapper man riding a red rocket into the air, holding a glass of pilsner in his hand. The air is filled with flying machines, which is what we were promised back then. I’m still waiting for my flying car that folds into a briefcase.
