November 2018
« on: November 26, 2018, 03:38:11 PM »
Picked up this advertising poster yesterday for Panther Brewing Company of Utica, NY, when they introduced a beer, back in 1998, called "The Three Stooges Beer." The brewery is no longer open.

The production of this particular beer was not that long lived. It was a classic lager. Here's an Adweek article from 1998, discussing its release in Aug. 1998:

These days, due to the Stooges tie-in, cases or 6 packs of full or empty bottles and other items for the beer are sought after and collected by brewery-related folks.

The poster measures 28 x 36 inches and is rolled. There is no printer's name info on the poster, just the trademark info and year printed.

Ive looked a bit for this poster online and only found one or 2. Others were done in a much smaller size, too, standees, etc. The Stooges tie-in makes it cool for us movie lovers, too.

That’s awesome! Nice find Jeff!
I still have some empty bottles of that beer that I kept.

Always been a huge fan of the stooges!
