Beer In Ads #3006: Birra Perugia Hobbyhorse

May 27, 2019 By Jay Brooks Leave a Comment

This image has an empty alt attribute; its file name is 3993724870_6a0224e391.jpg

Monday’s ad is for Birra Perugia, from around 1930. From the late 1800s until the 1960s, poster art really came into its own, and in Europe a lot of really cool posters, many of them for breweries, were produced. This poster is for Birra Perugia, which was founded in 1875. The brewery is located in Perugia, which is in central Italy.  The artist who created this poster is W. Romano, but I’ve been unable to find any information about him.
