Buffalo, NY: The William Simon Brewery, [ca. 1960s]. Full-color poster, 20 x 15 inches, on cardboard. Minimal wear. Near fine. Item #6123
A wonderful full-color advertising poster for Simon Pure Beer targeting the African-American community, with an African-American man at left pouring a can of beer into a glass, with an African-American woman at right slicing a tomato while the couple, both smiling, make dinner in the kitchen. The William Simon Brewery produced some of the finest beer in upstate New York beginning in the late-19th century until the company closed in 1972. The company is described in an article from the 1987 Brewery Collectibles Club of America News Report as "one of the most successful and continuously operated Buffalo breweries."
