A gentleman at the races, a white horse, and a very Louisville beer.
Falls City Beer was a Louisville institution — and this 1960 full-page color advertisement is a rare survivor with the original 1905 logo bordering the entire page, used until 1978. The scene is pure Kentucky: a dapper gentleman at the racetrack, holding a racing form beside a white horse, the tagline reading "For Fun Pick the Popular One — Its Bitter-Free Taste Pleases Everyone!" The reverse carries a full-page Raisin Bread sweepstakes advertisement for TWA trips — a delightfully unexpected pairing.
A wonderful piece for a bar, study, or equestrian-themed space. A meaningful gift for Louisville history enthusiasts, breweriana collectors, or Kentucky horse racing fans.
