Wow...a trip down memory lane! When I was little I loved those jingles and the Hamm's beer signs, which were "high tech" for their time. Can you imagine the fit libs would have today between the "Native American" flavor of the Hamm's jingle and all the cute little critters in their ads and signs?

I also miss seeing the Marlboro man bringing home the Christmas tree. Those ad restrictions sure have stopped smoking and drinking, haven't they? Thanks for the memories. (And I don't smoke or drink beer...except an occasional Shiner Bock.)

My grandparents had a tavern and they had Hamms bar lights with a northwoods scene and I think something inside turned and it looked like a sunrise and sunset. I used to look at them for hours, you'd think I'd remember them.

The cartoon commercials were the best!
