Beer In Ads #988: As Smooth As A Waltz

October 1, 2013 By Jay Brooks


Tuesday’s ad is for Schlitz Beer, from 1943. That makes it a wartime ad, but it shows a fancy dress dance party, which seems a bit incongruous. But presumably they’re dancing a waltz, which makes the tagline — “As Smooth as a Waltz” — work.
