Monday’s ad is for “Coors Beer,” from 1939. This ad was made for the Coors Brewing Co., who did not do as much advertising as their competitors. In part, this was because they were not sold nationwide until the 1980s. This one shows Christopher Columbus and was obviously intended to be published around October 12th, and then it takes Columbus’ planning of his trip and his foresight(?) to compare it to modern brewing methods. But then it ends with this gem of a tagline. “For Natural Thirst you’ll prefer COORS.”
