A campfire scene anchors this color lithograph advertising Bininger's Pioneer Bourbon, which uses frontier imagery to sell its whiskey. A.M. Bininger & Co. issued the label around 1859, and the New York firm Sarony, Major & Knapp printed it. Pairing a glowing fire with the word "pioneer" suggested hardy, dependable drink to buyers in the decade before the Civil War, and the print shows how commercial lithography and liquor marketing developed together.
