Beer In Ads #1093: What Was Schlitz Doing With Teddy In Africa?

February 5, 2014 By Jay Brooks


Wednesday’s ad is for Schlitz, from 1965. The Teddy in the title “What Was Schlitz Doing With Teddy In Africa?” is Theodore Roosevelt, our 26th president. According to the ad, shortly after he left office, he went on a hunting expedition to Arica, and took along with him quite a lot of bottles of Schlitz.
