Beer In Ads #3225: The Land Of Tuborg

January 1, 2020 By Jay Brooks

Wednesday’s ad is for Tuborg, from the 1950s. From the late 1800s until the 1970s, poster art really came into its own, and in Europe a lot of really cool posters, many of them for breweries, were produced. I’ve been posting vintage European posters all year, and for the remainder of December will feature holiday-themed posters of all ages. “Tuborg is a Danish brewing company founded in 1873 on a harbour in Hellerup, an area North of Copenhagen, Denmark. Since 1970 it has been part of the Carlsberg Group.” This poster, an illustrated map, was designed by Hakon Mielche.
