Schweppes was the brand that gave the world its bottled tonic and ginger ale, and this advertisement puts its soda water and dry ginger ale front and center. Advertisements of this kind were common in American magazines and streetcar cards from the late 19th into the early 20th century, when carbonated mixers were marketed as wholesome alternatives to strong drink and as the ideal companions to cocktails. Worth noticing is how the piece sells the product through its bottle shape and label rather than through any claim about taste, a reflection of how much early soft drink advertising depended on packaging to build trust.
