Beer In Ads #619: Nothing So Good … For Good Company!

May 31, 2012 By Jay Brooks


Thursday’s ad is for Carling Black Label, from 1956, during their “Hey Mabel” period. Showing a golf motif with a face made of a hat, golf balls and tees, with the eyes glancing at the bottle of Black Label. Apparently that’s all you need, even if “the putts won’t drop.”
