Do you have a tape that contains the original California raisins with the construction workers (1987) or the one where the raisins make a long line (1986 or 1988)?

Sorry to report that I don’t have those. Not sure I’ve even SEEN them, but they sound entertaining!

Do you happen to have any of the old Saturday Morning bumpers from the big 3 networks saved on analog and/or digital videotape [or film for the ones made that way]?
The ones in the playlist I've linked are the ones I'm talking about:
