Description

Kentucky Tavern Bourbon Whiskey Ad June 1944Full color 10″ x 13 1/2″ ad that seems to be touting the purchase of War Bonds. The ad shows a tabletop that has a full bottle of Kentucky Tavern Straight Bourbon Whiskey that, also says on the label, “Bottled in Bond”. There is a full glass of this bourbon in a weird glass and a book standing open to the page that is saying “The Enchanting Hour”. The statement that is placed along the right border, from top to bottom, says “The Aristocrat Of Bonds” and the one going along the bottom of the page says “There’s Only One Better Buy In Bonds…War Bonds”. The only advertising that is done for this drink is, in small print, above the bottom saying. It identifies that as equally enchanting as it’s flavor is the unique background of this product. It has been run by the same family for over three generations.
