This clip is a commercial for Canada Dry's Ginger Ale, a soft drink, that's likely from the 1970s. The commercial flirts with 1920s Prohibition era stereotypes.
A CU of a newspaper headline announces, “America’s Going Dry!” Five women in a warehouse are dressed in drag, pretending to be mobsters and carrying guns. A woman in a pink suit holds up a bottle of Ginger Ale. A woman dressed as a flapper talks to the camera while flaunting sex appeal. The women in drag also present a feminine sex appeal to the camera.
