Description: The postcard features an aerial view of the Pabst Breweries in Milwaukee, showcasing its extensive industrial complex. Established in 1844, the Pabst Brewing Company grew into one of America's largest brewers, celebrated for its Pabst Blue Ribbon beer. This historical significance highlights its pioneering role in large-scale beer production and its influence on American beer culture. The reverse of the postcard, postmarked August 7, 1941, from Racine, Wisconsin, contains a humorous note about accidentally using a 3-cent stamp intended for a letter on this postcard. The stamp features a purple 3-cent Thomas Jefferson design, common in the period for domestic correspondence. The sender mentions that the postcard was brought from Milwaukee and relates it to a visit to the Pabst brewery, suggesting the beer tasting experience ("It's time for Pabst Blue Ribbon Beer and Ale after going thru the plant").
