It’s the cat’s meow.

Calvert whiskey ad by Tom Lovell
From 1947. Some magazines from my collection are in more of a “rustic” condition than others. 

The artist, Tom Lovell, had quite a career doing pulp magazine covers and paintings of the American West. And Siamese cats in whiskey ads.

The ad copy:

“Easy to see he’s well educated!”

Why are wise folks switching to Calvert?
Because it’s the whiskey of moderation”…
blended for agreeable lightness…superb taste…
all-around whiskey enjoyment. We invite you to try it
and learn for yourself the pleasant reasons why…
