Beer In Ads #598: Fireplace Popcorn & Budweiser

May 2, 2012 By Jay Brooks


Wednesday’s ad is for Budweiser, from around the 1950s, part of their long-running “There’s nothing like it … absolutely nothing” campaign. The setting for this one is a couple making popcorn in their fireplace, fully dressed. I love the man’s smiling-with-a-pipe expression.

    Interesting color scheme on the can that’s partially hidden – not the red & white that’s been around as long as I can remember. My guess is that ad is pre-50’s
