Beer In Ads #423: Miss Rheingold’s Puppies & Kittens

July 27, 2011 By Jay Brooks


Wednesday’s ad is a 1948 ad for Rheingold Beer, featuring Miss Rheingold for that year, Pat Quinlan. In the ad, Miss Quinlan is carrying two baskets with three puppies and kittens in each. With the garden in the background, it almost looks like she’s just come back from picking them.
