This poster is printed on shiny paper so I couldn't get rid of the glare.


Check out the final scene in "Fast Times at Ridgemont High"...

and you will notice Jeff Spicoli wearing a cool yellow Colt '45 t-shirt.


Do you remember the Billy Dee Williams ads?


Andy "This was the one that started it all for us. Our search for Colt '45 took us on a three hour urban exploration through some of the uh... not better areas of Sacramento and vicinity. It was quite a pleasant surprise to find that we would be rewarded with an extra 5 ounces per bottle over the normal 40."
