Tuesday’s ad is for “Budweiser,” from 1958. This poster was made for Anheuser-Busch, and was part of their series using the tagline. “Where there’s Life … there’s Bud,” which ran from the 1950s into the 1960s, and features Budweiser with a sandwich on what looks like a bicycling picnic of sorts.
Sunday’s ad is for “Budweiser,” from 1959. This poster was made for Anheuser-Busch, and was part of their series using the tagline. “Where there’s Life … there’s Bud,” which ran from the 1950s into the 1960s, and features Budweiser with spaghetti. Coincidentally, today is also National Spaghetti Day.
Sunday’s ad is for “Budweiser,” from the late 1950s. This poster was made for Anheuser-Busch, and was part of their series using the tagline. “Where there’s Life … there’s Bud,” which ran from the 1950s into the 1960s. I believe I’ve shared a number of these before, but I hadn’t seen the one featuring popcorn before.

Fryday’s ad is for “Budweiser,” from1959. After two years posting European beer posters, it’s time to return to some more traditional beer ads from American brewers.

I believe I’ve shared a number of these before, but I hadn’t seen the one featuring potato chips before.
Thursday’s ad is for “Grande Brasserie Mapataud,” from maybe the early 1920s or 30s. From the late 1800s until the 1960s, poster art really came into its own, and in Europe a lot of really cool posters, many of them for breweries, were produced. This poster was made for Brasserie Bertrand-Mapataud in Limoges, which is in central France. It was founded in 1765. Unfortunately, I couldn’t find out any more information about the French brewery. I’m not sure who created this poster of the brewery, and I wish I could find a larger image of it because I love that it appears to be showing a large floating pint of beer, with centaurs with wings flying around it, hand-in-hand, like it was a maypole.
