They drive me to drink...

[Brinybay]

If you were around in 1919 (just before Prohibition) and came across this poster:

Seriously now, would you quit drinking?

 

[Geesie]

/me pours another glass of bourbon, just to be safe

 

[rmrdaddy]

I'll take a triple with Geesie!

:eusa_doh: "Barkeep! More redeye an' make it snappy!"

 

[carter]

[rumblefish]

OOOH FA!

Is liquor all my lips have to touch? :eusa_clap :whistling wheew!

That's a cute picture, but it sure looks like a modern lampoon to me.

 

[DeaconKC]

I don't drink, but I may join you!

 

[DBLIII]

And I have about five hours to wait until I will be home with a beer. Need to remember to pack a beer with me in case I run across that image again!

 

[JEEP]

Make mine's a pint please - and a burb' with ice on the side.....

It's certainly not from 1919. Easily 1890s or 1880s.

It's kind of how I feel about those anti-smoking commercials.

Yes, certainly the lampooning of a popular Temperance movement slogan - I'd love to know whether it was early or more recent, though!

I'd be on the side of the Repeal movement during Prohibition:

Vote Boss Pendergast!

 

[Heather]

Ah-hahaha!!

Pass me the communion wine...the whole vat...make that the entire winery and vineyard. And if that doesn't work there's always gayness.

 

[Caity Lynn]

...makes me glad I'm a women and don't have to deal with that whole bit.

Timely as I watched some show last night about Brad Pitt and he was a bootlegger. Had a grizzly bear in it but for life of me I cannot find the name.
Honey watches this stuff and I kind of zone out off and on.

Nah. It's 1970's or later.
