Beer In Ads #2835: The Story Of Bread

November 25, 2018 By Jay Brooks


Sunday’s ad is for Budweiser, from around 1942. This World War 2 ad features a very happy-looking baker in a very industrial backdrop, with the headline “The Story Of Bread may well be called The Story of Civilization.” And in addition to the yeast used in making beer, A-B apparently was providing baker’s yeast as well.
