    Hey Mark,
    
    "Schaefer is the one beer to have, when you're having more than one"...-.
    
    I drank Schaefer from '63 to '64.

      I took a picture of the inside of the Black Ace.It is the Zero Distortion model.I don't know the value of the sliding pots yet. This one might of been wired by the head of the company John Grauer.The picture shows superb soldering and a very neat layout,I think...-Mark

      Hi Old Guy, Schaefer beer was the mainstay back in the early seventy's at Fenway Park.Also,the first stadium built for the Pats was in Foxborough Mass and called Schaefer Stadium.I saw Namath play there...-Mark.

    At least as far as Marketing went, my favorite beer was Rheingold. Two reasons.
    
    1) The company name and the brand name came from a Wagner "Ring" Opera.
    
    2) Miss Rheingold. They ran beauty contests. The first winner, "Jinx" Falkenburg, had a Germanic family name but she actually was Hispanic--a first!
    
    I worked in a wine shop. I remember a sub-brand beer "Andeker" that seemed unusually good for a domestic product.
