In 1935, the Olympia Brewing Company put up this exhibit in the window of an unidentified 3
building (the photo is attributed to the Tacoma News Tribune-Ledger). The text on the central
advertisement reads in part: “Women prefer Olympia Beer because it’s strengthening and non-
fattening.” Examples of the hanging banners and the horseshoe-and-bottles cardboard placards
are housed in the Schmidt House collection, owned by the Olympia Tumwater Foundation.
