Beer In Ads #1056: The Ballantine Snowman

December 30, 2013 By Jay Brooks


Monday’s ad is another one for Ballantine Ale, from 1947. This one also uses their standard layout from that time period, and features an awesome snowman holding a beer. I have an original of this ad framed in my office; it’s a favorite.
