Beer In Ads #1789: Flying Goats

January 13, 2016 By Jay Brooks


Wednesday’s ad is for Bock Beer, from either the late 1800s or early 20th century. It was produced by the Donaldson Litho. Co. of Newport, Kentucky as a sample of their printing work, complete with pricing information at the top. This is one of several bock-themed samples they produced, and in this one not only can goats fly, they can fly airplanes.
