Beer In Ads #1215: Drink Ewo Beer

June 7, 2014 By Jay Brooks


Saturday’s ad is for Ewo Beer, from the 1930s. The Ewo Brewery was founded in Shanghai, China in 1935. Some sources claim this ad is from 1930 and another similar ad for the same beer claims to be from 1920, but that seems impossible, unless there was another brewery by that name earlier. Anyway, all I could think of was that if you added a “K” it would be Ewok. Nerd.

    Slightly risque for those days! Maybe it was the lighting, but it sure looks like her right breast nipple’s poking thru her bra/undershirt. If she removed the standard binding herself for the photo shoot, good for her!
