Description
Full color 9 1/2″ x 13 1/2″ ad that shows two different Proof bottles of Old Forester Kentucky Straight Whiskey. The photo for the ad shows both bottles of Old Forester on a tabletop along with a single glass that is having a shot glass poured into it that came from, I don’t really know. The ad headline says that there is “Now Both Popular Proofs” and it tells us that “The name’s the same…the whiskey’s the same”. The two bottles have indicators telling us that the one on the left is “100 proof mellow bottled in bond” and the one on the right is “86 proof light-hearted bourbon”. As good as this may sound, the text at the bottom of the ad says it all, “There is nothing better in the market”.
