Beer In Ads #2068: If Famous Crowns Could Talk

October 19, 2016 By Jay Brooks


Wednesday’s ad is for Schlitz, from 1939. In this ad, entitled “If Famous Crowns Could Talk,” the history lesson is about the crowns worn by royalty around the world. The advertorial includes nine crown stories, before predictably finishing by talking about the bottle cap, or crown, from a bottle of Schlitz beer.
