Boy-Cott Stag Beer. Stop Before You Buy. Are You A Stag Beer Drinker? If You Are, You Are Drinking Segregation

Memphis, Tennessee, 1964. Approximately 6.5 x 8.5 inches. Fine. A handbill calling for the boycott of Stag Beer. The handbill alleges that although “80 Per Cent of us Drink Stag Beer”, the company employs no African-American salesmen – and that if the A.S. Barboro Distribution company were not discriminating in its hiring, “We should have about Ten Negro Salesmen” on the company’s Memphis beer trucks. The N.A.P.A., presumably the organization responsible for the flier, is unknown but assumed to be a local Memphis civil rights group. At the time of writing, we find only five other extant copies of this handbill: at Princeton University, University of Michigan Ann Arbor (William Clements and Hatcher Graduate Libraries), University of Iowa, and University of Memphis.
