Description
Full color 9 3/4″ x 13 3/4″ ad for Ancient Age Straight Whiskies. This ad has a drawing of a football game and there is the stands across the field and, in the foreground, we have one man sitting on his horse carriage waving an orange flag with red letters, “A A” on it. The caption says that you can “Enjoy the luxury of the ‘FLAVOR-YEARS’ in the mellow ripeness of Ancient Age“. It then says that “That gay old grad – Ancient Age, class of ’32 – knows that after a ‘4-year course’ comes the post-graduate ‘Flavor-Years,’ and each one adds richer maturity, smoother body, finer flavor. For full taste advantage of more ‘Flavor-Years’ the straight whiskies in Ancient Age are EIGHT YEARS OLD”.
