Beer In Ads #2761: It’s An Old New York Custom

September 12, 2018 By Jay Brooks


Wednesday’s ad is for Schaefer Beer, “first produced in New York City during 1842 by the F. & M. Schaefer Brewing Company.” This ad, from 1938, features a couple on bicycles who’ve stopped for a hot dog and a beer, which apparenty is an “old New York custom.”
