Schlitz Beer – 1950s
Yes, Schlitz Beer had multiple sexist ads that ran in the 1950’s. This one shows a distraught wife who is upset that she burned the dinner she prepared for her husband. However, her husband assures her that it’s no problem, since she “didn’t burn the beer.”
Western Electric – 1950s
It is quite interesting to see what Western Electric imagined future phones to look like. While we give them points for creativity, we can’t help but point out that they were pretty off. In fact, forget about touch screens, the “future” phone still has a cord!
