Beer In Ads #2704: What’ll You Have With Ham

July 18, 2018 By Jay Brooks


Tuesday’s ad is for Pabst Blue Ribbon, from 1953. Starting in the early 1950s, Pabst started a new ad campaign with the tagline “What’ll You Have” which lasted for a few years. They were colorful ads, and often had the tagline spelled out in creative ways. In this ad, “What’ll You Have” is written on the side of a large ham sitting on a silver tray. There’s also another silver tray with two bottles of Pabst poured into two beer glasses.
