Description
Full color 9 1/2″ x 13 3/4″ ad for Ballantine Ale. This ad has a photo of two men sitting in front of a TV watching what looks like a football game. They are not really paying attention to the panic that seems to be occurring on the television, rather they are much more interested in tapping their glasses of beer together. The headline says that they should “Enjoy the game with light refreshing Ballantine! That’s Ale, Brother!”. Below the picture, the ad claims that there is “No other ale…no beer…has such refreshing flavor, yet is so light. No Wonder Ballantine Leads All Ales In Sales! Enjoy some soon…Ask the man for Ballantine Ale“.
