Did you get that ad out of the back of a comic book back in the '50's?

Oops... it's actually from 1919!

I do believe it's that old. 

Notice the address: 1203 Pabst Bldg, Milwaukee, WI

After a little Googlin' l found the building was owned by the family of Pabst brewers but doubt if it was one of the actual brewing sites.  It was Milwaukee's first "skyscraper", 14 stories and demolished in 1981.  :(
