Beer In Ads #956: The Lady Chooses

August 16, 2013 By Jay Brooks


Friday’s ad is for Miller High Life, from 1952. Showing a woman dressed for golf, with almost no waist, including a hat with tees built in. At the top of the ad is a still life of an assortment of “womanly” items, with a beer bottle and full glass dead center.

    … & if she gets it 50 yards off the tee, good for her! Interesting that she’s wearing a turtleneck – I’m no follower of fashion , but I don’t recall ever seeing lighter outerwear w/turtlenecks until the 60’s (but I grew up in Fresno, where such wear was unneccesary for golf, unless it was cold/foggy on a winter day).
