A couple months ago I <a href="http://www.its-pub-night.com/2009/06/blast-from-past.html" rel="nofollow">blogged</a> about a book that has the first seven series of Wacky Packages (1973-74). Even though there were 19 cigarette/cigar parodies, the only beer one in those first batches was the Pabst parody (Blast Blew Ribbon). I wouldn't be surprised if fear of MADD and other Just-Say-No agitators would keep them from doing any beer/liquor ones nowadays. But the Schmutz one was never issued back in the day.
