Beer In Ads #2268: Three Rings, Clowns

May 6, 2017 By Jay Brooks


Saturday’s ad is for Ballantine, from 1940. In this ad, part of a series progressing from one, to two, to three rings, this one shows a clown juggling rings, starting with one and progressing to three. I like their idea to get people to order it. “Order the ‘Handy’ way.”
