Beer In Ads #53: Schlitz Real Olympic Gusto

February 26, 2010 By Jay Brooks

ad-billboard
Friday’s ad is for Schlitz, and seemed appropriate since we’re in the waning days of the 2010 Winter Olympic Games. This Schlitz ad was part of their “Real Gusto” campaign and ran during the 1964 Summer Olympic games in Tokyo, Japan. The ad features sportscaster Tom Harmon, father of actor Mark Harmon, who anchored the Tokyo games coverage on NBC.

    Mark Harmon’s (NCIS) daddy. You should google him if you don’t know his career.
