Friday’s ad is for Ballantine, from 1939. In this ad, part of a series progressing from one, to two, to three rings, a talented seal is balancing rings on its nose, first one, then another and finally the three rings of the Ballantine logo. His wings even grew a thumb so he could order a beer “the Handy way.”

Does anyone remember or have a link/access to the Mel Brooks/Carl Reiner Ballantine Beer radio commercials of the 1960s (The 2,000 year old brewmaster)???
