Beer In Ads #1085: You’ve Elected Margie McNally

January 28, 2014 By Jay Brooks


Tuesday’s ad is yet another one for Rheingold Beer, this one from 1956, although it features Miss Rheingold from the next year, Margie McNally. The ad is introducing Margie as Miss Rheingold 1957. She looks like quite the beauty queen and in fact the ad copy claims that choosing Miss Rheingold is “America’s second-largest election.”

Rheingold-1956-4
