"From now on, we have 'full' beer."


Würzburg, Germany, about 1946. Three Displaced Persons react to the announcement that Vollbier will be available at the DP camp. The fellow on the far right is my friend Kris's Uncle Al.

Thanks to my friend Kris for making this photo available to us.

A German friend says it looks like the third line probably reads "Preis pro Liter" (price per litre) and "Preis pro Flasche" (price per bottle). The second line presumably refers to the brewery, Brauerei Roth (which is still in existence).

Wartime advertising at its best!
