Description
Full color 9 1/2″ x 13″ ad for Schenley 86 Proof Blended Whiskey. This ad has a holiday appeal to it with a picture of a bottle of Schenley sitting there with the claim “‘Skyline’ Decanter” next to it, standing on a scene where the city is snow-covered but, between the city and the bottle of Schenley is a very little stream of unfrozen water, many young trees and a cobblestone bridge just wide enough to be walked over. The headline says “For The Height of Elegance In Holiday Gifts…Give Schenley“. The text then says that “It’s the gift no one ever wants to exchange…clearly finer Schenley elegance. And this year, more than ever, it’s America’s most wanted gift whiskey. Proudly displayed in the ‘Skyline’ decanter, here is a gift for just everyone on your list. (Don’t forget yourself when you get your supply at your favorite retailer’s)”.
