Beer In Ads #2779: For Real Enjoyment Break Open This Page


Sunday’s ad is for Schaefer Beer, “first produced in New York City during 1842 by the F. & M. Schaefer Brewing Company.” This ad, from 1957, features a background that is designed to look like just another page in the newspaper, but with a case of Schaefer beer, and a pair of hands trying to open the case and get to the cans of beer. I guess the idea was that you’d turn the page and it would look so real you’d try to grab a beer off the page.
