Pilsner (AKA vitamin P) is a real staple for the beer drinkers out there. The legend is that the more you drink, the easier it is is to find the white rabbits in the label. Back in the old days there were only two. Above is a rare label that only made production for couple of years.  According to my sources Pilsner drinkers preferred the steam train and bi-plane that is now found on the Pilsner label as opposed to the “modern” one shown here.
