Friday’s ad is for “Hamm’s,” from the 1950s. This ad was made for Hamm’s Brewing, which was founded in 1865 by Theodore Hamm in St. Paul, Minnesota. At its peak, it was the 5th largest brewery in America, and operated facilities in five cities, including San Francisco, L.A., Baltimore and Houston, in addition to the original brewery in Minnesota. This one features a bottle of Hamm’s keeping cool in the snow with a hand holding a full glass in the foreground, and the tagline: “Refreshingly yours from the land of sky blue waters!”
