In that Cheer commercial at 8:26, the young husband is Lisle Wilson, who played Leonard on That's My Mama.
1:06 I didn’t know that bubble wrap was actually marketed as a play item back then.
There is a nice Cheer spot with a black couple.
Blacks were seen in ads more often by then, Interestingly it was a rare but not NEW thing. I saw an ad for "JAX" beer from 1948, and far from being what would be thought to be a "stereotypical" depiction of blacks in the 1940's, it shows obviously upper middle class folks enjoying the beer at a party. Here a link: th-cam.com/video/Z-VH0siDMjI/w-d-xo.html
It's funny (not funny ha, ha, but funny-interesting) that the advertising world was somewhat quicker to portray blacks as "just regular folks" than the television shows themselves. That's what I like about this commercial- nothing unique or special about these two except that they are a very attractive couple talking about laundry; just like everyone else!
@@Tomovox_PAMS_Radio_JIngles In the "Jax" case the people seemed ABOVE the norm ( for most people,Black or White), Then again ANYONE with TV in '48 was a higher income demographic anyhow. As for "shows" vs "ads", It "Kinda" made sense, You would advertise to an affluent demo (black or white), but cater the shows to the LOWEST demo (black or white). In "the day" even the highest end products of their era (Zenith Radio and Cadillac cars are early examples) WOULD aim ads to HIGH INCOME blacks in prominent black magazines because.....MONEY! And those who did, garnered loyalty. Those wanting to sell stuff knew one "color"---Green. If they were smart.
Oh, If any one wants to know (..and they shouldn't care by the 21st Century....) I am 3/4 "white" and 1/4 "black".
@@jamesslick4790 I agree, nobody should care by now. Nowadays it's all totally cool!
That's Harry Guardino in the Bromo Seltzer commercial.
They produced a series of "tough guy" ads during this period- also featuring Jack Klugman and Royal Dano.
Very creative visuals for the Lemon Refreshed Mr. Clean commercial. Madison Avenue was figuring out if we had to watch these things, might as well make them as entertaining and creative as possible.
Procter & Gamble was trying to make Mr. Clean more appealing to younger housewives (in their twenties) with "hip" visuals, and a new "Lemon Refreshed" formula.
@@fromthesidelines I have one of the early packages in my vintage P&G collection.
GREAT!
@@fromthesidelines A man with a shaved head and an earring was BORN hip...
Back then, depending on the channel, late night TV had a different vibe. Weird movies, panel news shows, sloppy station bumpers, screwed up slides.
I miss all that!
I think they WERE using slide projectors for some of those local ads because they were mostly just still shots
@@impalaman9707 Yup, actual slides.
@@ChristopherSobieniak Me, too. It had an unmistakable laid back soft tone. Look at the Moment to Live By segments as an example.
KCOP 13 in LA was the champion of the different vibe.
These are way cool, what format was this on?
Love the old commercials !
Even that dank one for the defunct Chicago Daily News?
It's hard to imagine that these commercials are 51 years old and it was my Birthday a few days ago ( February1st, 1970).
I didn’t know bubble pack was around back then. I thought it was an 80s phenomenon
The first very commercial of Zest Soap !!
Actually, Zest was introduced way back in 1955. That first commercial is also posted.
I bet that Ronald McDonald appearance was just a "local" Ronald McDonald with a Chicago accent! Apparently, McDonalds did that thinking kids wouldn't notice a difference. Imagine how disappointed I was when I had a birthday party at McDonalds, and the Ronald that showed up had a Southern accent--I felt like I had been cheated out of getting the REAL Ronald McDonald from the McDonaldland ads
Lol , I grew up in Southern California and I went to a McDonald's event where Ronald McDonald made a guest appearance. He sounded like a California hippie saying , "Man" , and "Dude " to people. This was around 1972 , lol!
I just figured he was like Santa Claus. I knew that even Santa couldn't be everywhere at once, so he had all these other 'Santas' in his place. Same thing with Ronald McDonald.
@@itiswhatitaintanditaintwha1427 Yeah, my local Santas had a Southern accent, too! And he was supposed to be from WAY UP NORTH? (yeah, right! I knew better!)
The Arizona land commercials seem to be a 40 year later update of 1920's Florida land schemes! 😜...I'm Jim from Oak Park and I just bought an acre of un-inhabitable desert!--"
A few years later, a reporter in Arizona was killed investigating Mob connections to such activities...
@@tomservo56954 Well, I'm not REALLY shocked. I don't know anything about the deal from this ad, but even as a kid, these "deals" just seemed "skeezy".
@@jamesslick4790 I have a FB friend in Tucson, and I asked him if he knew what it's like now.
2:56 Jodie Foster at the beginning of the Small Shots commercial.
Pamelyn Ferdin in the Cream of Wheat commercial beginning at 12:47.
Good catch! Pamelyn Ferdin is a great example of a young actor everyone in the 70s recognized but few knew her name. Lisa Gerritsen was another. :)
@@brentmann2988 She's on Facebook
@@tomservo56954 And we remember both of them on "The Odd Couple."
@@brentmann2988 "Bunny Is Missing Down By The Lake"
There's still a McDonald's at the Bridgeview location...the S. Cicero one is now a Mexican restaurant
No, the S. Cicero McDonald's is an empty lot. The Mexican restaurant NEXT to the lot used to be a Taco Bell.
Oh, barf.
..."You don't look half-bad on plastic yourself"....I tried this line, My "ex" hit me. 🤣
Smooth move, Slick. 😆
14:18- Paul Frees as "Hans, the little old chocolate maker".
Crunch Bars are now made by the Ferrara Pan Candy Company. 🍫
Yes. They bought Nestle's line of candy bars in 2019.
Shelley Hack in the Breck ad.
12:47- Pamelyn Ferdin in the "Mix 'n Eat Cream of Wheat" commercial.
14:48- Fred Foy, announcer.
16:00 Bernie Kopell (Doc from The Love Boat) Prell Concentrated Shampoo commercial
Not him...
Per the WGN ID around 1:20, I was wondering if the station ever tried to squeeze South Bend into one of those slides; I guess it didn't.
Channel 9 showing the last movie John Dillinger saw...
At the Biograph Theater in Chicago, July 22, 1934.
@@fromthesidelines The Biograph's original seats were sold to Heritage Ontario, which used them in its restoration of the Elgin-Winter Garden Theatre in Toronto, Canada (the only operating historical double-decker theatre in the world). Nobody knows which of those seats was the one Dillinger sat in, but it's in there someplace.
@@OofusTwillip What's the difference between a double-decker theater and a two- screen one?
8:28 later were husband and wife on that’s my momma
13:46 Italiana 14:20 German/Deutsch- The German character reminds me of my Uncle Dave. who is also of German ancestry.
yes i still have my small shots!!!!! :D
Nice. 😄
I have Cheer, Zest, Prell and Bromo Seltzer in my vintage collection....am looking for a good bottle of Mr. Clean!
Add some more vintage stuffs, soon!
Bozo's Hop&pop was just commercial grade bubble wrap. How they used to deceive when I was a kid.
Foxonian That’s what I said! 🤣🤣
Wow, 1971 / 72 and they thought a cure for cancer was "soon". :(
SWISS colony ITALIAN RHINE skeller. Wow, Covers a lot of Europe for a California wine!
My father considered "Swiss Colony Wine" expensive paint thinner. 🍷
