Beer In Ads #235: Colt 45 On The Playboy Jet

November 3, 2010 By Jay Brooks

ad-billboard
Wednesday’s ad is for the malt liquor Colt 45 and a contest where someone could win a “completely unique weekend on Playboy’s Jet.” I picked the ad because I’m getting on a plane early tomorrow morning and it is decidedly not the Playboy Jet. Does Playboy even have the jet anymore? My guess is no, and for that reason I have no idea when this ad is from, though it seems like the 1970s is a safe bet. But as the text for the contest begins, which makes me wonder, “do I deserve [a] Colt 45 weekend?” Does anyone?

    No doubt the Playboy jet has been scrapped or enjoying its last days as the flagship of Zimbabwe Airlines or similar carrier.
