Plot

Great care and pride went into compiling hours of vintage commercials from nearly 45 years of broadcasting. Watch the development of the television commercial from its earliest stages. Educational and entertaining!

This volume may be our best one yet! Here's a partial list of what's on this one: Mystery Date, Racko, and Easy Money games, the very first "Jolly Green Giant" spot, the famous Kodak "turn around" ad, a Swinger camera commercial featuring Ali MacGraw, Soaky bubble bath, Funny Face drink mix, Suzy Cute doll with Louis Armstrong appearing and singing the jingle, Secret Sam toy spy kit, plus Dick Van Dyke and the rest of the gang for Kent cigarettes, a very young Mike Wallace for Cheerios, and more! Then there are the famous spots like "Wow! It sure doesn't taste like tomato juice", the coffee commercial where they pour a cup and a half, the one where you guess which one is the mother and which one is the daughter (do you really care?), some incredibly campy spots for spray starch, plus much more!

  Good, entertaining collection of old commercials. It's only an hour long, but they make up for that with low compression, so, although the age of the commercials means that there will be imperfections, the transfers are about as good as they could be without restoration. My only real complaint is that I would've liked to have a chapter break for each commercial.
