Why Take the Risk? [Schlitz]

schlitz
Why Take the Risk
of your beer becoming impure?

You are not asked to take a similar risk with other kinds of food.

And yet, every time you buy beer in a light bottle you must assume the burden of keeping it away from light to avoid that skunky taste.

Get Schlitz Brown Bottle, and you get beer that is kept pure from the brewery to your glass.

Schlitz – the Beer That Made Milwaukee Famous

Werewolf Ring

I think this ad is kind of misleading. “Werewolf ring” makes me think of a ring that a werewolf wears, or a ring you wear in order to turn into a werewolf. And what does it mean by the “secret club” comment?

werewolf ring
Werewolf Siren Ring
It’s a ring! It’s a siren! Blow into it and it sounds like a police car. Sounds like cry of werewolf, too. Great for fans and secret clubs. Only 75 cents plus 39 cents for postage and handling.

From LIFE Magazine, May 4, 1962.

listerine orgasm

Don’t Guess About Your Breath

Gargle Listerine and Be Sure

Anytime, anywhere, anybody can have bad breath, because most bad breath is caused by germs in mouth and throat. Listerine is antiseptic – to kill germs in mouth and throat on contact, by millions. It combines more active ingredients for killing mouth germs and stopping bad breath than any other leading oral antiseptic or mouthwash. Listerine stops bad breath instantly and for hours on end. You actually feel it working. Listerine Antiseptic.
