The Saga of Pabst Blue Ribbon Poster

An advertising poster for Pabst Blue Ribbon beer. The poster features an image of a young man with a caption reading "our founder," a bottle of Pabst Blue Ribbon and an overflowing glass of beer. In the background is a drawing on the brewery buildings with a caption that reads "Our brewery in 1844." The poster is designed to look like a movie poster and says "The Pabst Brewing Company presents... the saga of Pabst Blue Ribbon, 129 years in the making, never before has the purest water, malt and the finest imported and domestic hops been portrayed so lavishly!! Starring a cast of greats and near-greats (also some unknowns), See... Pabst selected as America's best and some really happy judges!! Thrill... to the taste of good old-time flavor! Rated VG for very good stuff, filmed in natural beer color, produced by the first of the great Milwaukee brewers, They loved it in Milwaukee!" |
