I was born & raised in Madison. These truly bring back wonderful memories! I wish my parents could see these - they would be blown away. Thank you so much!
2:22 - Carmelita Pope for Pam cooking spray. 3:22 - Norman Fell for American Express. 3:54 - Bo Swenson for Wood Crafter furniture polish. 6:30 - Dick Tufeld does the voiceover in that promo for ABC's Tuesday Movie of the Week (The Mark of Zorro). 12:49 - Euell Gibbons for Post Grape-Nuts. 13:19 - Johnny Olson does the voiceover in that game show spot for B.F. Goodrich Fixer tires. 13:49 - David Ogden Stiers as Darby Dawg, the country DJ in that ad for Listerine. 17:27 - Dick Tufeld again, this time on the voiceover for ABC's Wednesday Movie of the Week (Death Cruise). 19:29 - Lauren Hutton is among the models in that Revlon Touch & Glow commercial. 21:02 - George Montgomery for Pledge furniture polish. 21:32 - TV spot for The Towering Inferno. 22:03 - Debbie Reynolds for Singer sewing machines. There are a number of other recognizable faces in various commercials as well, but I don't know their names. They're people you saw all the time on TV shows and commercials in the '70s.
I hope y'all will reply to this David Ogden Stiers in the Listerine commercial this was three or four years before he played Major Charles Emerson Winchester the third on the CBS sitcom M*A*S*H* and the voice over was Peter Thomas who was the voice over in so many commercials and hosted Forensic Files he lived to an old age either 94 or 97 years old
04:51 Marcia McBroom -model /actress Beyond the Valley of the Dolls - for Ultra Brite 10:02 Louise Shaffer -soap actress between gigs on Where the Heart Is and The Edge of Night - for Unicap M vitamins. 22:35. Augusta Dabney -character actress and ex-wife of Kevin McCarthy - for Sony TV
I was 14 in 1974 and this flashback is kinda weird, it doesn't seem that long ago, before Internet, we were naive but had real mysteries. I remember thinking how computers you just press a button, I've avoided tech as much as possible, even today.
If you have some commercial breaks from Wausau stations WSAW (7) or WAOW (are these the correct call letters for Channel 9?) from this same (mid-1970s) era, I'd appreciate that. Thanks.
I looked just about everywhere for stuff from those two stations. I feel pretty confident in saying that just about everything that's out there is posted on my channel.
5:58 - Sinarest - Looks like it might have been animated by Cliff Roberts, who did the "I've Got a Mind" segments for the early years of "Sesame Street". The style is very similar.
@cainealexander-mccord2805 this was three or four years before he played Major Charles Emerson Winchester the third on the CBS sitcom M*A*S*H*....he was on Matlock several times playing the DA (district attorney)...I hope you will reply to this
@@sherryhannah498 I'm well acquainted with his work on MASH. (It's my fave. I have the box set but watch online too!) I didn't really watch "Matlock", so I missed out on that. I was delighted when he turned up on "Frasier" and I got to hear his non-accented speech. I think I prefer the Boston accent!

That's Louise Shaffer in the vitamin ad at 10 minutes, and Augusta Dabney in the Sony ad at the end.
Grape Nuts or not, Sadly Euell Gibbons would pass away only a year later in 1975
Thanks for the info.

Also, a rare commercial appearance from pre-MASH David Ogden Stiers.

Back when you had to get up to change the channel. If the knob came off, needle nose pliers always worked.
