Beer In Ads #1764: The Rheingold Christmas Tree

December 19, 2015 By Jay Brooks


Saturday’s ad is for Rheingold Beer, from 1957, and features Miss Rheingold from that year, Margie McNally. It’s a simple ad, with Miss Rheingold out on a crisp winter’s day, wearing a warm white winter coat, and choosing a tree for Christmas. Hopefully, this isn’t the one she settled on, as it looks more fit for Charlie Brown.

    Wow, I googled Margie McNally (Petersen) and discovered there was a lot more to her than a pretty face. She lived an incredible life that involved some very generous philanthropy before dying in 2011. Thanks for a cool retro ad!
