Beer In Ads #555: A Sunday Supper Success

March 2, 2012 By Jay Brooks


Friday’s ad is for Pabst Blue Ribbon, from 1934, with nice alliteration. I like the description of the beer in the ad copy. “Animated amber and old gold, a crown of lacy foam, beautiful to behold, and all that it promises to the palate.”

    Agreed on the great ad text – but what we see in the illustration is a dinner party at a rich person’s house. I doubt if beer would have been the drink of choice for the over-dressed folks at that gig.
