Wednesday’s ad is for is by Ballantine Ale, from 1943. Most of this month I’ve been posting Brewer’s Gold ads from the 1950s, but I’ve shared all of the ones I could find, so for the remainder of the month there will be random Ballantine ads. In this simple ad, during World War 2, a bottle of Ballantine Ale is the only color in the middle of the ad. The headline is “How American it is … to want something better!” And by something better, they mean Ballantine Ale, of course.
