Beer In Ads #1005: For That Smoother Taste—

Thursday’s ad is for Pabst Blue Ribbon, from 1950. The setting for the ad is the archery range, and features archery champion Larry Hughes. According to a History Of Archery By Tom Brissee, in 1941 Hughes used “aluminum arrows to win the American National Archery Championship.”
