Beer In Ads #949: Served In The Hollywood Home Of Bob Hope

August 7, 2013 By Jay Brooks


Wednesday’s ad is also for Pabst Blue Ribbon, this one from 1948. Showing famed comedian and actor Bob Hope in what’s purported to be his home in Hollywood — golf club in hand — he appears to be lecturing the crowd, perhaps on pain of getting hit with his driver. That, or he’s boring them to death with another golf story.

    “33 fine brews blended into one great beer” – in 1948 – HUH??? If someone were to find & (be able to) publish the recipes for those 33, that would be one grand coup! Meanwhile – LYAO.
