Falstaff beer...............gone, and soon to be forgotten by the next generation.
I think it could be reincarnated for the same hipsters that keep PBR afloat.

I actually saw some Black Jack Gum at a store the other day, no idea if it is like the original or not. I saw blackjack, Beemans, juicy fruit, not long ago! Internet I was reading said some company bought the rights to the name in 20-18 or some such and started making it again. Didn't look deeply into it to see if they bought the recipe too. Last had some Black Jack probably a half dozen years ago...........tasted close enough to bring back memories. Geno

Am I seeing things?
I coulda swore somebody posted up a reply to the Schlitz I put up that called Schlitz skunk pee. But the one I called Skunk Pee was Miller High Life, it tasted of skunk.
Actually I loved Schlitz until Stroes bought 'em out and they F..ed up the Recipe. It was [bleep] beer after that. That was in the late 70s. Anytime a bunch of Bean Counters starts messing with a good product they usually ruin it. Same thing happened at Winchester in '63-'64.

Bought a Woodstream Hunter Seat 9080, back in 1983. It had a saddle style hinged lid. It was light, quiet, sturdy & not bulky. I hunted Dove & Squirrel with for decades. It has been my absolute favorite. About the year 2000 I figured I better buy another for an extra. It took me searching E Bay to find some & had to pay a premium. But, at least I got it. That stool has been as important as my shotgun.
If anybody has one I would like to buy it.
By the way, in case you missed it, Jeremiah was a bullfrog.

My grandfather was foreman for the cattle outfit with the brand of the long X. It was a rib brand and covered of the side of a steer (cow).
It is still being used in texas today.
But that is not what you had in mind. But it is a famous brand.

Donagel PG. The PG denoted "paragoric", a morphine solution. That [bleep] would fix you right up if you were bad off sick like with the flu.

I remember the days when advertiser's painted the side of barns out along country roads to help sell their products. Anybody remember Milkshake candy bars? I haven't seen one in decades. As for chip brands, for us in the Northeast Ohio area, it was DanDee. We had Borden milk products down there too. I just saw a thing that Elsie the Cow no longer graces their logo. Memories from a bygone era.

Someone else may have beat me to this but...............Allis-Chalmers, Oliver (and later on White), Minneapolis-Moline, all brands of tractors you used to see around here, along with Ford, J.I. Case, Farmall, I-H. The latter are still around, just under new names now. Allis was a pretty popular brand around here at one time, and made some solid tractors. I had a "C" that we bought new in 1950, and it was used here for almost 50 years. M-M was never very popular here in this area, but you did see quite a few Oliver tractors.
