Beer In Ads #1869: Uncle From The West

April 2, 2016 By Jay Brooks


Saturday’s ad is entitled Uncle From the West, and the illustration was done in 1946 by Stevan Dohanos. It’s #1 in a series entitled “Home Life in America,” also known as the Beer Belongs series of ads that the United States Brewers Foundation ran from 1945 to 1956. In this ad, it appears that a relative who lives out west is visiting a more easterly family and bringing western gifts along with him.

001. Uncle From the West by Stevan Dohanos, 1946
