Tuesday’s ad is yet another one from the United States Brewers Foundation, again from 1956. This was part of the “Beer Belongs” series, but after the numbered “Home Life in America” run. I love the ad copy on all of these. “Beer has its own wonderful way of saying … ‘Time for a Breather.'” But this one is a bit weirder. I’m sure the dude has been working hard, but he looks like … well, like he’s a bit of a dandy. Who dresses up like that to do yard work? And those white gloves look pretty spotless, don’t they? Those are not the gloves of a man who’s worked hard enough to take a breather.
