From the Land of Sky Blue Waters
This was the slogan of Hamm's Beer, one of the many big breweries using Wisconsin as a base. In fact, at one time, with the exception of Budweiser, all of the big names in this very competitive industry were from Wisconsin. How many of you can recall the jingle...one of those which, at least for me as a Midwesterner, will remain forever etched in my memory.
I've attached one of the earliest of commercials which, I'm sure you'll recognize, was actually filmed on my lake. If you watch it, perhaps you'll be struck by the innocence and simplicity which existed 60 some years ago. I, for one, could use a bit more of it. (And I don't mean the beer...)
