Beer In Ads #2088: When Gentlemen Agree …

November 8, 2016 By Jay Brooks


Tuesday’s election ad is for Budweiser, from 1965. In this ad, with the headline “When Gentlemen Agree …,” the elephant and the donkey appear happy and sharing a beer. This is when Johnson was president and shortly before we elected Nixon. I sure hope both sides of this year’s election can share a beer and appear so happy, and soon.

    I have this same ad, I dated it 1956 with a pencil after I removed it from the magazine it was published in, most likely LIFE. It’s a full spread page, staples removed it measures 21 inches wide. Very nice.
