Wednesday’s ad is for “Hamm’s,” from 1964. This ad was made for Hamm’s Brewing, which was founded in 1865 by Theodore Hamm in St. Paul, Minnesota. At its peak, it was the 5th largest brewery in America, and operated facilities in five cities, including San Francisco, L.A., Baltimore and Houston, in addition to the original brewery in Minnesota. This one shows a beer salesman in the stands at a Chicago White Sox game, with the tagline “Reach for the big one … Hamm’s.”
