Wonderful Rum Drinks was produced by the Puerto Rico Industrial Development Company’s Rums of Puerto Rico division. The Puerto Rico Industrial Development Company (PRIDCO) was established in 1942 by the government of Puerto Rico as part of a larger effort to promote and transform the nation’s agricultural economy. The Rums of Puerto Rico division was created a few years later, in 1948.

This booklet is undated, but, based on a contained mention of Ft. Lauderdale’s Mai-Kai Restaurant, was published no earlier than 1956, and probably no later than the late 1960s. It is call number Pam 2010.433 in Hagley Library’s collection of pamphlets and trade catalogs, and can be found in full in our Digital Archive’s Mid-Century Cocktail Culture collection.
