Description
Full color 9 1/2″ x 13 1/4″ ad for Old Taylor Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey. This is an ad for the holidays and it shows a tall glass decanter filled with Old Taylor with a picture behind it of a snow-covered scene with a house and a bunch of trees around it. The headline for this ad says that “The gift of perfect taste, Old Taylor – Your Noblest Bourbon Of Them All”. The ad then says “Here is world-famous 100 proof bonded Old Taylor, in its truly beautiful Presentation Decanter, specially designed for the 1956 holiday gift season. You pay no premium, and get the same full measure of the same Old Taylor bourbon as in standard bottles. Here, fine bourbon flavor and perfect decanter design go hand in hand”. At the lower right hand side of this ad is a picture of the Old Taylor Decanter. The ad tells us that “Both the Old Taylor Presentation Decanter and the regular bottle are available in Gift Cases of one dozen, with beautiful holiday cartons of matching design. What a splendid gift a full case will make for the V.I.P.’s on your list”.
