Awesome find NJ. I'm loving the old ads in this magazine. You guys should call the Royal Orleans, ask them if that Three day/ Two night deal for $119 is still in play!

Thanks for posting this! It's interesting to see the entire publication as it gives a context of the times. I haven't seen a Boodles ad (or a bottle of Boodles) in YEARS. A co-worker used to insist that the bar downstairs from our office stock the stuff. Because of how the bottle was shaped it couldn't fit on any of the shelves so it had to be kept on the top of the bar back. Our bartender was constantly moving it to get to glasses or the register. Shitty gin but it made my buddy feel special to have "his" drink behind the bar.

If you look on page 71, apparently Jaws 3 was about to come out. Sorry guys, I can't get enough of these old ads I don't mean to get off topic.
