Beer In Ads #2768: Get P.D.Q.

September 19, 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 1950, features the tagline “Get Pale Dry .. Quick!” Asking customers to order your beer quick seems like a weird approach to take.
