Poster for 1935 Three Stooges short "Three Little Beers," where the stooges are clumsy brewery delivery workers who enter a golf tournament for the prize money.

A totally normal situation with no comic or slapstick results whatsoever...or is it?

Magazine style drawn ad for Budweiser. Shows six white men of various ages at a bowling alley, smiling and enjoying beers. One has a cigar. Two of the men are in the act of bowling (sloppily). Text on ad reads: "This calls for Budweiser...bowling night...you sure look forward to it. The guys, the laughs, the close games, having a cold Bud between frames...Where there's life, there's Bud."

Budweiser, 1962.

Both the bowlers shown here have sloppy form. Gonna be splits all night.

Not gonna lie, I don't really care for this beer. I'm a Victoria fan.

Safe journey, Artemis 2!

Supermarket display in Germany for Kosmonaut Bier. Shows stacked plastic crates filled with bottles, next to it a cardboard cutout of an astronaut holding another crate.

Looks like they had cutout displays, at least.

Floating around...I see what you did there.

Lost Hiker Brewing in Ruidoso, NM

Looking through my collection, I'm surprised how few space-themed beer ads I see.

Surely, statistically, they must exist. Somewhere in that endless sea of observable beer ads.

I'll just have to find them...out there.
