A rather unique piece of breweriana that combines sports history with brewery advertising. Of note is the fact that the center image itself is on thicker card stock and the woman is embossed significantly from the background, creating a three-dimensional look. This embossing technique for brewery advertising is rare and provides an excellent visual appeal. With a tennis racket on her shoulder, she holds the glass of beer in the air, apparently in pure appreciation of the moment. This portion of the image is enclosed within a black rectangular border and has the slogan “Gesundheit” below.
