Beer In Ads #1144: Yebisu Airplane

March 28, 2014 By Jay Brooks


Friday’s ad is for Yebisu Beer, from 1930. This was only three years after Charles Lindbergh’s famous transatlantic solo flight, so showing an airplane above the Tokyo skyline was probably pretty cutting edge at the time. I love the stylized perspective, especially the wing.
