An Ad to Overcome Prohibition

An Ad to Overcome Prohibition
This full page ad for Wohl's Hungarian Restaurant appeared in the Plain Dealer on December 23, 1922. Prohibition had been in effect for two years and this ad, which stressed the quality of coffee served at the restaurant, as well as the quality of its food and decorations, may have been intended to bring back customers who no longer patronized the restaurant once its Hungarian wines and other alcoholic drinks could no longer be legally served at the restaurant. | Source: Cleveland Public Library, Digital Newspaper Collection
