    Commercials were so pure and simple, polite and quiet, no irritating Lume lady talking about her nasty pits or underboob.

      And in the '60s and '70s, we hated it when our programs were interrupted by ads. Today, we watch 44 consecutive ads and love every minute of it!

    • @NeighborhoodOfBlue
      @NeighborhoodOfBlue Před 16 dny

      My partner pointed this out about me as well. When companies respected their customers, it really showed in the advertising. Keep that in mind when you see modern ads- that's all they think of us.

    I was born in 1967, so a few of these I haven't seen before. Thank you for sharing these. It's ironic because back then commercials were frustrating to watch, but now decades later these same commercials bring back so many wonderful childhood memories, experiences, moments, and overall feelings of youth. Ironic that now I will sit through close to an hour of them and love every second of it.

    It's nice to be able to see old TV shows, but the icing on the cake is the vintage commercials. I've been tracking down commercials from the 50's and on that have nice songs and/or music. There are many of them and commercials from back then had the best by far.

    These old commercials are the only time I've heard protein pronounced "pro-tee-in." So weird. 😂

    Bob Warren is seen in this ad about garden hoses. He was a voiceover artiste and was the longtime announcer of "The Lawrence Welk Show"
    (1955-82). Also two spots for the Chesapeake and Potomac Telephone Company (now Verizon) are featured. The Mustang car spot features Gary Merrill providing the voiceover. Mandel Kramer shills Hostess Donuts. Bob Landers is telling the young generation to 'Come Alive! You're In the Pepsi Generation" from 1964. Joanie Sommers is providing the vocals.

  • @bakedshark1822
    @bakedshark1822 Před 2 měsíci +4

    For some reason, I like those old ads a lot more than those we have nowadays. Maybe it's the music, maybe the way it's filmed, it's much less annoying.

      BFGoodrich makes tires. I think they are still available.

    • @armorybrunotjr.3204
      @armorybrunotjr.3204 Před 11 měsíci +6

      No. B.F. Goodrich manufactured P.F. Flyers. You're thinking of U.S. Rubber,
      a subsidiary of U.S. Royal Tires, who manufactured Keds.

      @jbug45945 Před 3 měsíci +1

      In my neighborhood back in the day, the jingle I heard goes something like this:
      I love Bosco, Boscos good for me
      Mother put in my drink to try to poising me
      I fooled mother, I put it in her tea
      Now, I don't have mother to try to poison me
      Not sure I got it all correct.

    10:15 The bad old days in advertising when companies made health claims that were not true, like this Bosco ad. any vitamin D that the children got was from the milk, not the Bosco. As for energy, a spoon of sugar will do that, and that is not healthy. Even the name, "Milk AMPLIFIER" was misleading, by implying that it somehow increased the nutritional value of milk.
    25:15 All donuts float in the cooking oil.
