This 1988 Claussen ad shows two pairs of black leather driving gloves "test driving" pickle spears, bending a soft, cooked-looking spear at the top and snapping a crisp Claussen spear cleanly in half below. The playful automotive metaphor and bold black background give a simple pickle jar a surprisingly punchy, high-performance pitch.
