Description
Full color 9 1/2″ x 13 1/2″ ad for their Fine Blended Whiskey. The ad has a picture of a man in a red coat tipping his hat as he and his horse cleanly jump over a split-rail fence and the headline calls out “First over the bars!”. The text explains that, just like a prize-winning jumper, a whiskey must be developed slowly, expertly and with infinite care. Hunter has been developing their procedures for 86 years and are proud with the result. In the bottom right-hand corner of the ad is a platter with two glasses and a bottle of this product with the same man and horse jumping the fence.
