The poster advertises Three Horse Ale from the Long Island Brewery, and its name points to the horse-drawn era of brewing, when teams of draft horses hauled beer barrels through city streets and became a familiar emblem of breweries. Advertising posters like this one were usually color lithographs, designed to be pasted on saloon walls, storefronts and hoardings, where they competed for attention with many other product notices. Its wording and artwork offer a window into how beer was marketed to working-class drinkers, with the brand name and imagery doing most of the persuading.
