I came here because of the Poloroid. I saw one 2 years ago. A relative has one as well as the other earliest Poloroid cameras. But thank you for "introducing" the actors/actresses in the commercials. I'm a '90's baby.
WOW WHAT A FLASHBACK WITH THAT POLOROID SWINGER COMMERCIAL I HAD FORGOTTEN THE SONG THANKS FOR SHARING NICE TO HEAR AND SEE THINGSD FROM A MORE INNOCENT FUN TIME..
I'm still hoping for that Playtex "No Visible Means of Support" Bra as demonstrated by legendary stage magician Harry Blackstone, Junior (and, I believe, his wife Gaye)!
Never thought I'd miss Commercials! A time when each one was entertaining and told a story. Not like today's commercials that are Telling you all about some deadly disease you may have and how the medication for it is even More Deadlier! Or some Lawyer telling you how he cares about your Well Being and Will help You Sue some company!
So many beautiful ladies, Farrah, Lindale Carter, Susan Dey, Marilyn Monroe, shirley Jones, Sandra dee. Also some cool guys like Mel the velvet fog Torme!
The combination of Penny Marshall and Farrah Fawcett is terrific! Rest in peace, Farrah and Penny. I also like the shampoo ad with Shirley Jones. Lynda Carter had beautiful lips.
8:10-9:06: I remember it being about 1980 when I first saw one of those hair dryers with the cap and rubber tubing. The cap INFLATED when full of hot air. Thankfully the Silex motor never needs service while it sounds like a lawnmower and interferes with TV reception.
If you ever make another one of these, I have on for you: Curtis-Mathis TV, For many years promoted by Frank “Junior “ Coghlin. He started his film career 1920. Was active up to WW2, and a 23 year Naval career, Returned to acting-part time from 1965.
Mr. Magoo enjoying a Stag Beer and the smooth crooner, Mel Torme riding a rocket while singing about those Olds 88's. My first memories of Mel was getting the short end of the stick on NBC's Night Court. Rod Serling smoked like a chimney (that's why he lived such a short life) so doing a Forest Fire PSA seemed fitting. Steve McQueen, the Viceroy Man. What a time.
Please bear in mind Serling wasn't the only one that chain smoked. John Wayne and Steve McQueen did as well (who both died of lung cancer almost the same year, I think) and so many other Hollywood actors/actresses. Those who didn't were considered oddballs. Time has brought about a flip, and for the better, health-wise. Yeah, they made bad choices but they weren't necessarily bad people.
Susan Dey was my first celebrity crush. I was deeply in lust with Laurie Partridge. And of course, the Mr. Magoo commercial was a "double celeb" ad, since Mr. Magoo was voiced by Jim Backus (for you kids, think Mr. Howell on Gilligan's Island.) On the Carol Burnett Show, they did a great parody of the Robert Conrad battery commercial featuring Tim Conway as the "knock this off" guy. (Instead of "knocking it off," Lyle Waggoner just punched him in the face.)
You might be interested to know that my sister looked so much like Susan Dey that there were times when we’d walk into a restaurant and I could hear people whispering, “She looks like Lori Partridge!”
@@luisreyes1963 In the episode of ALFRED HITCHCOCK PRESENTS titled "Bang! You're Dead", he was going around town unaware the gun he was carrying was real--and loaded. One of those inadvertently threatened was his future LOST IN SPACE sibling, Marta Kristen. (Note--it was one of the small number of ones directed by Hitchcock himself)
These are an interesting mix of nobodies before they were famous, and on the other end of the range, current stars making celebrity endorsements. In between are people who had been famous but were no longer important enough to warrant being identified by name when they did an ad. Viewers would recognize most of them but might not remember exactly who they were.
I remember almost all of these. Lynda Carter in the lipstick one! You'd never get away with that one nowadays. Mustv'e been downright challenging to be a teen aged boy back then!
oh gosh today you cannot advertise toy guns on TV for fear it gives kids the wrong idea however a gun dealer can sell a real gun to a .minor without asking for some type of identification. what gives here? guns do not kill people. people kill people that is true but what needs to be done is that the gun sellers should thoroughly check the buyers profile for any serious .mental problems and if they find anythings do not sell them the gun okay
The singer in the Polaroid Swinger commercial sounds an awful lot like Barry Manilow, who wrote and sang commercial jingles (State Farm Is There was one of them) before he was famous.
Absolutely no one with long hair would pile oversoaped hair atop their head then massage it around like that. The end result is a tangled mess impossible to comb through, causing a lot of breakage instead.
Thanks FrdFlix for this vintage gold. As a kid, I wanted to talk like Rod Serling--so distinctive.
I came here because of the Poloroid. I saw one 2 years ago. A relative has one as well as the other earliest Poloroid cameras. But thank you for "introducing" the actors/actresses in the commercials. I'm a '90's baby.
I loved that Head and Shoulders commercial with Farrah Fawcett and Penny Marshall. The interaction between them is priceless!
Yeah, it's pretty funny. I also like the font they used in the title caption.
Farrah was gorgeous in her prime.
When O.J was being chased in his bronco he thought it was another Hertz commercial.
WOW WHAT A FLASHBACK WITH THAT POLOROID SWINGER COMMERCIAL I HAD FORGOTTEN THE SONG THANKS FOR SHARING NICE TO HEAR AND SEE THINGSD FROM A MORE INNOCENT FUN TIME..
Wow thanks for sharing , these bring back the memories and age. Thank you
Rod Serling's ad was like watching a The Twilight Zone episode! Timeless and classic.
Thanks for uploading these jewels!
Having a great time binge watching these videos!
Rod Serling made a believer out of me.
It was that very ad for Milton Bradley's Hangman game that made my dad get me one for my birthday. I sure had fun with that game.
TimelordR cool ❗️
That bank is so accurate with how banks work in Greece. 😂😂😂
Receiving a Polaroid Swinger camera for Christmas 1966 was a major source of excitement.
This collection is amazing ‼️
Thanks, Jeff.

you forgot Raquel Welch
Love the Velvet Fog. I owned a 75 and an 83 Delta 88. Great cars.
Had those exact blow dryers and boy have we come a long way.
Absolute classic is the Farrah/Penny Marshall one. Also the Monkees selling Nerf balls. And hey Mary, you need a white belt...! :D
Jill Monroe and Laverne DeFazio lol
Charlotte Tan Raquel Welch...my dream babe when I was a teenager.
Charlotte Tan ii
I remember Hang Man game from Milton Bradley. Love Mel Torme singing.
I never seen Marilyn Monroe in a commercial before! This is great!
She should have done a life insurance commercial.
Mr. Magoo in beer ads? Shocking...
Also, that PSA with Rod Serling, he's dead serious.
I hope he never accidentally started a forest fire...
The combination of Penny Marshall and Farrah Fawcett is terrific! Rest in peace, Farrah and Penny. I also like the shampoo ad with Shirley Jones. Lynda Carter had beautiful lips.
Billy Mumy and those Guns! Lol
I had both.
Miss Farrah

😂😂😂😂
We brought my mother one of those hairdryers with a tube and plastic cap way back in the early 60s. She had it for @ 50 years.
Lets not forget Mary Louise Weller and Debbie Evans from the Jean Nate After Bath Splash Commercials.
'where you were 50 years ago'....... I was in the Air Force in South Korea stationed at the Osan Air Base during the USS Pueblo Crisis of 1968.
Don't know how you find all this but it's cool
7:13 MTM was beautiful.
Remember Steve McQueen , only you can prevent forest fires . . . in the twilight zone .
The “Hangman “ game with Vincent Price -
The actress with him was on The Walton’s as one of the Bootlegger sisters.
I had seen that Lady Shick commercial before and didn't realize that was Angela Cartwright! She sure was HOT!
If you ever make another one of these, I have on for you:
Curtis-Mathis TV,
For many years promoted by
Frank “Junior “ Coghlin.
He started his film career 1920. Was active up to WW2, and a 23 year Naval career,
Returned to acting-part time from 1965.
16:27 - Rod Serling's bit...that's good.
Just love...❤
These are gems. I'm amazed at what we used to. Oooohhh and aaagghhh...about in the ol days..
r.i.p. davey jones :(
Linda Carter soo beautiful 😍😎😉💋💄
The lady on the hangman game one w Vincent price is miss Mamie from the waltons

Peggy Lee also did Oldsmobile commercials around that time...
Rod Serling seen heavy combat in the Philippines against the Japanese.
Ok I'm shipping on the penny and Farrah advert 😍
Sott towels, did you notice that mum and dad sleep in separate beds ??
Those guns were fun, but little did we know that they were for training all to be soldiers.
Susan Dey was my first celebrity crush. I was deeply in lust with Laurie Partridge.

Don't blame ya' lady. Love it.
Mr. Magoo a drinker?! Say it ain't so!!!!
Was that Vern Bennett, the early O & H announcer doing the Hotpoint commercial at 6:22 ?
Who could have imagined OJ would be on the run for REAL!
3:00. I remember that kid. He was the possessed kid that was on the Twilight Zone. Super creepy!
That's Billy mummy from lost in space
What's worse? Having little Billy Mummy shoot a gun at you or wishing you out into the corn field?
Foxonian LMAO!
Foxonian HILARIOUS YOOSTOOPID!
At least Billy Mumy has no malice towards his toy gun target.

Wow Farrah Fawcett was beautiful. Yeah yeah we all know that but here she looks more natural
Recognize the guy singing in the Polaroid ad? He also composed the jingle. It's Barry Manilow.
Nice work keep it up
Laverne & Farrah work at Shotz Brewery.
Sadly, they both had passed away. From Ms. Harper Stacey.
Go! OJ Go! years later he would be ding a different kind of running...😆😆😆
10:30 I bet my hair to everyone that OJ got the Bronco from Hertz. After that everything does downhill after that for both OJ and Hertz.
Too cool
Ooohhhh, RAQUEL....
Those arent buoys
I didn't know Mr. Magoo shilled beer...
That's nothing, Fred & Barney once shilled cigarettes.
David Davenport
The vocal stylings of the great Jim Backus!
The character also sold GE light bulbs...
Somebody make a meme out of that Robert Conrad Eveready commercial. I dare you.
Farrah reminded me of the "How do you give somebody 'Shoulders'?" joke...😁
0-0 "go OJ go" well then that was foreshadowing much
5:05 very wonderful indeed
Nice pic
Is that Georgia Holt (Cher’s Mom) in the “Hotpoint” commercial?
The dancer is Mary Tyler Moore
Sacred Geometry yes, I meant the other woman in the commercial

lol steve mcqueen, a thinking mans filter!
laughed at the hangman commercial
Lynda Carter ..what a babe.
.. still beautiful.
Daquan Jackson But how on earth did they get away with that VERY suggestive dialogue 50 years ago?!
Shit gives you the most to work with . . . . hahahahaha
I thought it sounded like shit too .
I thought I was hearing things, so I listened a second time. Wow.
I thought I heard that, too!
How does he know he's drinking Stag beer?
Laura Petri...."Oh Ro-o-o-ob!"
Valerie sorry I ruined your classic commercials but it was seeing bill mummy with a toy gun that set me off
I remember almost all of these. Lynda Carter in the lipstick one! You'd never get away with that one nowadays. Mustv'e been downright challenging to be a teen aged boy back then!
Second commercial. I had that t.v. . It was used.
Sandra Dee stopping to see Mr Ed at Wilbur's home.
GO O J.......My how time's and things have changed.
I don't blame you, lady ❤
I was only 7 year old in 1966
Mantlebaum Mantlebaum....Its o time😂😂😂😂
Those arent buoys
I had forgotten all about Mr. Magoo
I had to do a double take at 12:49!

Lynda Carter the Maybelline Queen!
It won't be much longer before there is no one left who was these on a television.
Tarrah Fawcett & Pnny Marshall -what a odd pairing! But it worked!!!!
The singer in the Polaroid Swinger commercial sounds an awful lot like Barry Manilow, who wrote and sang commercial jingles (State Farm Is There was one of them) before he was famous.
I hadn't thought of it before but I think you're right.
It IS Manilow...
I am a lifelong Barry Manilow fan and can tell you this is definitely NOT Barry Manilow singing this jingle.
He composed this jingle and sang it.
www.theguardian.com/artanddesign/2009/sep/06/polaroid-project-sean-ohagan
15:20 Lauren was so cute!
Wow!!!!!!!!
Angela Cartwright was already a star, not sure why she would feel the need to do a hair dryer commercial?
Because they paid her to do it and really what did she do after lost in space
I still have a crush on Angela.
Susan Dey has luscious cheese burger lipps.
Women 40-60 years ago > Women today
The kid with the guns is chilling. Ad for future school shooters?
Absolutely no one with long hair would pile oversoaped hair atop their head then massage it around like that. The end result is a tangled mess impossible to comb through, causing a lot of breakage instead.
Nor would any woman in the shower still have on her full make-up either, showing no smearing from the water of the shower blasting into her face.
Not if you use the right conditioner
Mary Tyler Moore was such a naturally beautiful woman!
Practice for running to Al Callings 🚔
I really loved Mary Tyler Moore such a shame she passed. Jesus that Lynda Carter lipstick commercial was like soft porn....
Why would Miss Moore bother doing a toothpaste commercial? Oh well - I just enjoy looking at her anyway.
Shirley Jones before Mrs Partridge!
... and omg, Susan Dey.. I loved Laurie Partridge.
The Polaroid Swinger opened the world of nudie photography to a grateful nation.
Men make the best cooks, just ask dad. Come on Betty let’s see if we’re smart enough to put bread in the toaster. OMG!!!! WTF???? Father knows best?
These are all commercials made before the advent of "Toxic Masculinity".
In the old days, you could buy your son a gun that shoots projectiles! Yikes!
