The Life And Times Of Bourbon

Veronica Lake
A beautiful women that made our troops want to fight for our country and come back home in WWII -

Call It Old Bourbon
Marketing executives, branders, CEO's or owners of distilleries must like the word "old". So many bourbons include that in the moniker. -

Pin-up Bourbon Bottles
This tasty gallery includes some of the most beautiful pictures of bourbon bottles in the world. It does not get any better than this. -
We Like Bourbon - Sit Down and Join Me
Thomas Jefferson as Governor of Virginia offered pioneers 60 acres if they would build a cabin and grow native corn in Kentucky. The settlers produced more corn than a family could eat. So, turning it into whiskey made use of the perishable crop and eliminated the need to transport it. American ingenuity. -
Selling Bourbon - Advertising
The man at the left obviously came back from that board meeting where he pitched a new advertising campaign for Old Grand-Dad. It looks like today was a success, time for a sip. This fine Gallery is a graphic history of how Bourbon has been marketed over the decades. As new areas come to appreciate bourbon the message changes. The message also changes as the industry tries to make in roads into various markets. This is an expanding gallery (as in other galleries) with new marketing items added as they are found. -
Pin-Up Bourbon Bottles - A Sequal
Yes there are more lovely bottles. -
Ripped Right Off The Nose - Airplane
It first started in Europe during WWI. Men blessing their air planes with loved ones, motivational symbols and of course dreams. The art went into overdrive in WWII. Men and their big toys. This Gallery is a bit rougher and risque. War is hell. The Army ans Navy both had pretty specific rules regarding art on airplanes. What would you say, the Air force was not very specific. Rated PG -
Selling Bourbon - Advertising II
I always think fried chicken and bourbon. -
Pin-ups - For Our Military Bourbon
The military has always needed something to remind them, or at least fantasize about home. This material is probably PG. -
Bourbon Advertising 3
Nothing like a great, maybe not great, but another bourbon advertising sample to savor. In this section we imagine King Arthur sipping a bourbon during a joust. -
Bourbon Drinkers Appreciate Elegant Women- The Veronica Lake Series
As you sip your bourbon - you should sit back and appreciate life. -
Pinups - For Active Military
These are fantasies of lovely young ladies being healthful...today we would say they are working out. PG is probably a stretch -
-
Pinups and Military Never Out Of Style
These are pin-ups. I am going to be the conservative guy and call these R rated. -
-
Silver Screen Stars - Beautiful
It is no secret that most Hollywood types had a drink once and awhile. Yes Bourbon was often the flavor of choice. These women had taste and strode into the room, bejeweled and on the arm of a gentlemen. Included in this gallery: Mary Pickford, Grace Kelly, Carole Landis, Carole Lombard, Evalyn knapp, Greta Garbo, Gwili Andre, Lilia Hyams and Marion Davies. Some of the beautiful actresses from the golden age of Hollywood. -
Pinups - For Everyone
There are several Vargas pin-ups here...it IS NOT PG.... Even I know this is R. -
Greta Garbo
Swedish born Greta Garbo is our salute to legal immigration. We are pretty sure she had bourbon once or twice. If we are incorrect, well, frankly we don't care.

Mark Levin re: Obama experience.... "He's never even ran an ice-cream stand."
