Beer In Ads #1643: Give Yourself A Break

August 9, 2015 By Jay Brooks


Sunday’s ad is for Budweiser, from 1956. When you’re sitting in the dark watching nature documentaries, feasting on the carcass of a chicken (or possibly turkey) with some cheese between two slices of bread, you’ll definitely want a cold beer. So “Give Yourself A Break” and have some “late in the evening.” I hope Bambi makes it out the forest.

    Anyone have any idea what the top item is in the pile btwn the lamp & the turkey? If it’s a spiral notebook, the wierd art is incongruous, as it looks not to be openable. The bottom one’s a thin book; the middle one probably is a magazine.
