Beer In Ads #737: Beer & Powder Blue Dresses

November 14, 2012 By Jay Brooks


Wednesday’s ad is yet another one for Rheingold Beer, this time showing the finalists for Miss Rheingold for 1960, all in the powder blue dresses, matching shoes, white handbags and gloves. Which of these lovely young women will be the winner?

And here’s another ad with the same candidates, although in this one they’re not all in powder blue. Inexplicably, two of the Miss Rheingold candidates have changed into orange frocks. And this is before the New York Mets started.
