Title: Anheuser-Busch Brewery - Little Bighorn and Advertising History
Description: Original caption: "Massacre made military and advertizing history - Custer's last fight, the Sioux massacre of the 7th Cavalry at Little Big Horn, took place June 25, 1876. The same year, Adolphus Busch introduced Budweiser, the brew that would go on the become the largest selling beer in the world. By coincidence and uncanny marketing instinct, Busch acquired the right to this now-classic painting of the slaughter. In 1895, Busch commissioned F. Otto Beckler, a Milwaukee artist, to copy the work for lithographic reproduction. Anheuser-Busch made one million prints of the painting. Most of them were displayed in American saloons, and were credited as an early breakthrough in mass marketing and production merchandising - one of many that paralleled the rise of Budweiser, now celebrating its 100th anniversary."

The delegation, which consists of editors, diplomats and reporters, was on its first full day of visiting St. Louis as they hopscotch by air across America - from Los Angeles to New York. Beer... big airplanes... and the soft, pastoral world of Claude Monet were the chief objects of interest for the Chinese visitors. Beginning with bacon, eggs, and a warm welcome from Fred Kuhlman, senior vice president at Anheuser-Busch Brewery, the Chinese delegation moved out for a tour of the giant brewery."
