Description
Black and white 9 1/2″ x 10 1/2″ ad that suggests that “7-year Walker’s DeLuxe makes elegant Manhattans! Try one?” There is a picture of a smiling gentleman in the dining room of a classic old house holding a large tray that contains a bottle of Walker’s DeLuxe Bourbon with some missing, a pitcher that contains mixed drinks probably made from the Walker’s, six filled glasses and a small container that holds something sweet or tasty. There is a banner above this gentleman with the definition that says “DeLuxe: elegant in taste – uncommonly good”. The ad offers the assurances that “Even the most meticulously made drinks become notably smoother to the taste when made with Walker’s DeLuxe. Mellowed through 7 quiet years in barrels of charred oak, this is Hiram Walker’s very finest bourbon – elegant in flavor, 90.4 proof”.
