		<description><![CDATA[Wednesday&#8217;s ad is another one for Budweiser, though this one&#8217;s a little older than yesterday&#8217;s, most likely from the late 1950s or early 1960s. It&#8217;s from Budweiser&#8217;s long-running &#8220;Where There&#8217;s Life&#8221; series of ads.

		<description><![CDATA[Tuesday&#8217;s ad is for Budweiser, from not too long ago: 1987. And while I don&#8217;t normally feature the overtly sexist ads, this one is too classic to ignore. This, and variations on it, were nearly ubiquitous in the late 1980s. I recall seeing them everywhere. I still think it&#8217;s a fairly clever ad, even with [...]]]></description>

It shows two navy men painting, or possibly just cleaning, an impossibly huge aircraft carrier. One turns to the other and says. &#8220;I feel like a Guinness,&#8221; to which the other replies. &#8220;I wish you were!&#8221;]]></description>

He was born in Germany, but after 1938 he painted primarily in the United States, though he returned to Berlin late in life. He was perhaps best known for his caricatures. This week&#8217;s work, completed around 1928, is known as Political Conversation, The Café. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Thursday&#8217;s ad is for Schlitz, from 1954. Here&#8217;s another way-too-happy looking salesman, with teeth so white I can almost see my reflection. Frankly — no pun intended — he looks a lot like Frank Sinatra. Perhaps that&#8217;s what ol&#8217; blues eyes would have been doing had he not made it as a singer: selling Schlitz [...]]]></description>

No, &#8220;it&#8217;s bound to Bud,&#8221; at least according to the ad copy. But seriously, that guy looks way too happy.]]></description>

With the tagline &#8220;Sealed with a Kiss&#8221; doing double duty; it&#8217;s an association Schlitz had been using in their ads plus the woman sealing the letter while the postman waits. As World War 2 was still going on, the ad adds another layer of poignancy since the illustration [...]]]></description>

Since I&#8217;m almost out of vintage Guinness ads, I&#8217;ll never make it to 200, so I decided to use it for the 100th series post. The [...]]]></description>

Showing a pilsner glass by a mountain stream, I love their suggestion. &#8220;Refrigerate to retain brewery fresh flavor.&#8221; Did people really need to be told that?

With a great tagline, &#8220;Falstaff&#8217;s Got Something!, I also love how they characterize the beer. &#8220;It&#8217;s Dry, Light but Lively.&#8221; And it sure looks that couple has been hitting the bottle as they put up their decorations.
