Description

John Gannam Art Beer Ad October 1951Full color 10″ x 13″ ad for America’s Beverage of Moderation. This drawing shows two couples sitting in a living room sharing tall glasses of beer while talking and looking at an aquarium that is sitting on an end table. The drawing is called Showing off the New Aquarium and is identified as being Number 60 in the series “Home Life in America. The text of the ad, which came out six years after the end of World War II and during the Korean War states “In this friendly, freedom-loving land of ours-beer belongs…enjoy it!”. This ad is larger than my scanner bed so the outer edges of the ad will not be visible in the scanned view.
