Beer In Ads #422: Miss Rheingold’s Mini-Car

July 26, 2011 By Jay Brooks


Tuesday’s ad is a 1958 ad for Rheingold Beer, featuring Miss Rheingold for that year, Madelyn Darrow. In the ad, Miss Darrow is apparently trying to figure out how many hats she can fit into a three-wheeled precursor to the smart car.
