Vintage 1982 Wild Turkey Bourbon Whiskey Print Advertisement — Original 1980s Kentucky Bourbon Ad
Approximately 8 x 11 inches.
This vintage Wild Turkey bourbon advertisement from the early 1980s showcases the brand's signature dry humor with the memorable line: 'When you spend 2,922 days mellowing in an oak barrel, you're very, very sociable once you get out.' The original print ad features the iconic Wild Turkey illustration alongside a bottle of the classic 8-year, 101-proof Kentucky straight bourbon whiskey. A collectible ad for spirits enthusiasts, the piece captures the golden era of American bourbon marketing — confident, clever, and unapologetically Kentucky. A handsome addition to any vintage magazine advertisement or whiskey memorabilia collection.
