COORS asks the question:
What if you were to enter a contest to write these Coors ads... wrote an ad..won the contest... and came to New York for an all-expenses-paid week to work at Coors' advertising agency?
Would you be overjoyed?
Amazed? Speechless? Writeless?
Or would you take it all in stride,
sauntering down the hallways of
Madison Ave., mixing metaphors with all the other advertising folk?
Try it. Write a Coors "What if...?" ad for yourself. Send it to The Adolph Coors Company, "Ad Contest," Mail #329, Golden, Colo. 80401. Spelling counts.
Neatness counts. Paying attention to the amount of space available counts. Mentioning the product somewhere counts.
Besides a trip to New York, the winner gets his or her ad immortalized (and printed) in this paper. Illustrated in the same riotously clever style by the same riotously clever illustrator. Even paid a fee. A nominal fee. Very nominal. $50.
50 runners-up win a Coors High Country Back Pack. And they may also get their ads printed.
(For the same nominal fee...$50.)
(Sorry, no trip to New York.
In fact, we may even edit your ad.)
If you're the winner, you get a week at one of the largest advertising agencies in the U.S. Just don't expect permanent employment— but it could be a start.
Taste the High Country.
