Beer In Ads #424: Miss Rheingold’s Got A Squeeze Box

July 28, 2011 By Jay Brooks


Thursday’s ad is a 1956 ad for Rheingold Beer, featuring Miss Rheingold for that year, Millie Merritt. In the ad, Miss Merritt is wearing an exotic red dress sitting in the old barn with her squeeze box accordion, waiting for the performance, as the sign behind her promises, to take place “tonig.”
