Beer In Ads #1913: Cooling Off In The Country

May 16, 2016 By Jay Brooks


Monday’s ad is entitled Cooling Off in the Country, and the illustration was done in 1950 by Douglass Crockwell. It’s #44 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, three couples are in an incredibly beautiful spot, with the cabin or summer cabin right next to a rushing river. Doesn’t that look like fun. I sure wish I had a place like that, or could afford it, when I was their age.
