I used to enjoy the Quisp and Quake and Captain Crunch commercials. They all told little stories in 60 seconds. They were made by Jay Ward Studios, famous for Crusader Rabbit and Rocky and Bullwinkle, among other shows. My particular favorite was "Fractured Fairy Tales". I was too young to see Crusader Rabbit and they never reran it in my time. There was some great animation in commercials back then.
Good old commercials. Mom used Camay soap. She also bought the detergent and mother's oats to get the dishes and towels in each box. Her and Grandma had several sets of each. Folgers coffee always.
@1:01:04. . just my humble opinion.. the greatest cartoon voicework man *ever* 🎓💪🤳👑🤴. the Best who ever lived..🏆.. Legend🗿 Mr. Mel Blanc..🙏🕯️🌹💐🌟😔 ..💎💖😃
I remember the rivalry between Quisp and Quake. There was an ongoing narrative that involved the Quake guy. He was a construction worker who was hit on the head and then started to wear the cowboy hat for some reason. Or did I dream that?
No you didn't. As the story goes, it seems kids didn't go for the chunky construction worker, so they changed him into kind of a cowboy super hero, to go along better with Quisp.
@@charlesrobinson7469 Yup. Quisp and Quake were both just compressed, sweetened corn meal, just like original Cap'n Crunch. Identical taste. So was King Vitaman, if you remember that one.

1:16:15 - no wonder so many kids started smoking in those days. As great as Lucy and Desi were, they shouldn't have been telling people to smoke. Even Dick Van Dyke, a heavy smoker in his younger years (who has outlived them all!) even said that while Kent Co. sponsored The Dick Van Dyke Show, he said "I just can't be telling kids to smoke cigarettes." And speaking of Dick... 1:17:45

I miss the cigarette commercials. They should have banned alcoholic drink commercials Alcohol caused more deadly car accidents and liver damage which cigarettes never did
Probably had to do with which cost more in health care / insurance dollars vs tax or premiums collected. Also more people drank than smoked so bigger tax revenue.
I miss Cheer laundry detergent. And I still use Ultra Bright toothpaste. A lot of these products are no longer made. I realize that they don't show commercial like these anymore. It's all about prescription drugs and lawsuits.
56:17 That boy standing and holding the volleyball is Kiki Vandeweghe, the future UCLA and NBA basketball star. His mother is Colleen Kay Hutchins, who was a Miss America from Utah. His father is Ernie Vandeweghe, a former New York Knick and a doctor. The ultimate overachieving family (the NY Times obit on Ernie in 2014 said he played for the Knicks while a full-time medical student at Columbia), they apparently were the ultimate clean and deodorized family, as well. I remember these rather out there ads showing these ideal families all posing (sometimes wearing towels), and remember Kiki Vandeweghe as an opponent as our University of Louisville team won its glorious and thrilling first NCAA title against their dreaded nemesis Bruins. I had never known until right now that I had seen seen Kiki on our TV screen well before that night in 1980!
31:12 Looks like Jon Walmsley (Jason from The Waltons), but I’m not positive. 31:35 Eric Scott (“Ben Walton”) 32:03 Marcia Wallace (Carol on The Bob Newhart Show, and the voice of Mrs. Krabappel on The Simpsons)
Commercials are much shorter and less wholesome now. Why? They have had to make room for more of them during the commercial breaks. They also have to make the ending credits of tv shows shorter, so they can move on to the commercials faster.
We Americans do...unless we've had one with GOOD mustard! I used ketchup until a trip to an Austrian Weinachtsmarkt where they had no ketchup for their bratwurst. The mustard was FABULOUS. Haven't had ketchup on my dog since.
For a long time, I've been looking for an Orange Crush commercial. It was psychedelically colourful, and the jingle was "Break away, discover life today, discover lively taste, discover Orange Crush. It's got the lively taste of today." It played (I believe) in 1970, when I was ten years old. It doesn't seem to be anywhere on the internet.
A lot of those classic commercials have never been posted to RUclips, and likely never will be, either. I seem to remember that ad, but I couldn't have seen it too many times. We're about the same age, so there are probably others that we both remember from that same time frame that likewise aren't here on RUclips.

I think the FTC did not approve of the claim that Hersheys instant “makes milk taste like a Hershey bar.” In later years the jingle changed to, “…gives milk that super Hershey taste.”
They couldn't. This collection and part 1 are from the DVD set Classic Commercials, released around 2005 by Madacy Entertainment. It's a 2-disc set that you can get in stores for about $10.00.
They didn't transfer to digital very well, either that or the film or videotape stock deteriorated with age. They're public domain commercials so this may be the best quality you can get.
That strong taste and smell of Listerine mouthwash can never be forgotten. Kind of like the strong smell of Top Job. Great products.
Listerine got rid of bad breath instantly.
Most TV ads made during 1965 through 1989, I still remember from when new. I liked many . I have 2 DVDs of old TV ads.

Loved the smell of Camay soap...lady like and so clean!
Beverly Garland @29:04, Camay Soap. She would marry Steve Douglas on My Three Sons, and also made some fine film noirs earlier.❤the good ole days!

Cool backstory. Where they good cereals, they remind me of Cap'n Crunch(but different shape) or Oh's.
No you didn't. As the story goes, it seems kids didn't go for the chunky construction worker, so they changed him into kind of a cowboy super hero, to go along better with Quisp.

I love the Pink Floyd Dole commercial
Same here. I didn't know that "The Great Gig In the Sky" works well with selling bananas.
Just goes to show you, even commercials were better back in the day. God help America in another 50 years.
I remember many of these!!!!
Mrs. Olson's Grocery bag, she always has an extra can of Folger's for those sad new brides.

If Quisp makes your child hyperactive and anxious, you can't say you weren't warned.

i'd love to know how much they had to pay to license Pink Floyd's music for the banana commercial at 11:47
Quisp was my favorite cereal.
A-1 commercial was Boris Karloff...
Commercial of today are noring compared to these. These commercials tell a story.
I miss the cigarette commercials. They should have banned alcoholic drink commercials Alcohol caused more deadly car accidents and liver damage which cigarettes never did
Much safer to die from lung cancer and heart disease.
🎯👍👍💯
Probably had to do with which cost more in health care / insurance dollars vs tax or premiums collected. Also more people drank than smoked so bigger tax revenue.
Jaclyn Smith was the first camay soap girl and Donna Mills was the first ivory soap chick.
I would still take a bubble bathe with both of them.

I can't imagine how uncomfortable that Camay commercial made people feel. Actually, yes I can.

Can't believe I "haven't" seen it all!
I smoke Crisco. It's less greasy than those other cigarettes. No wonder why it's America's favourite
@ 52:12 - Was this commercial in 3-D ? I forgot to wear my blue & red glasses.

What is this orange lotion that keeps getting onto these women's faces?
Coca Cola taste better by watching there vintage ads XD
Wow!! Pink Floyd advertising bananas!
Roger Waters must have signed that deal.
Thnx
Back when people with actual TALENT made these things
Ah yes, there was a time when detergents only came in powdered form.
That is not all that came in powder form.
One came with nice drinking glasses or towels in the box. Back than, you more for your money😊
This is great!
@45:33 - John Amos ?
Yes, excellent catch!
@ 1:42:20 - Leonard Stone & Vito Scotti ??
Correct again!
A 1.00….wow mr. thanks for the tip…..hahaha

Correct!
3:35 who the heck puts ketchup on a hot dog YUCK
We Americans do...unless we've had one with GOOD mustard! I used ketchup until a trip to an Austrian Weinachtsmarkt where they had no ketchup for their bratwurst. The mustard was FABULOUS. Haven't had ketchup on my dog since.
Weirdos, and kids. 😁
I do!!
@106:21 .. The Monkees .minus Peter..☹️😔. and Bugs Bunny..(?) ..😃☺️😍♥️
Yeah, Peter left the Monkees in 1968, and these ads were filmed in 1969. Bugs Bunny was a Kool-aid mascot for a while.
That commercial was made to air during The Monkees' Saturday morning run on CBS. Bugs was in commercials for Kool-Aid and Kool Pops then.
Mie they sure don't make Hershey drink mixes anymore?!!!😢

Kids need a little something more to make up for the half hearted effort they put out 😂😂😂
Ahh, this was before Budweiser became the drag queen of beers.
I did NOT like the way that guy was touching those kids in the Ivory Snow commercial
🤣🤣🤣🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄
Wasn't that John Amos from Good Times?

were adverts really this long then

Good selection of commercials, but the video quality is shite.

A commercial that uses Pink Floyd's 'The Great Gig in the Sky' to advertise bananas? Really?
Yup, really. With a hot babe eating a banana in a sexy way. The people who made that one were smoking some serious dope then, you betcha.
@26:20...Mr. Spock ripoff...😀
analogue with defening white noise, the old days of LO-FI and BLURVISION...
Banana,egg+ milk=? Never even thought of making
that up .dont think l will try it. It bbvv vv
VOU FUMAR
They were better back in the 60s! Now they are boring
Impermanence
Boy, it sure was fun destroying the planet.
What's that horrid hiss in the background? Can't.
Barrel of Beer like Schmidts and Mickeys were gross tasting in my opinion. They had a vinegary aftertaste.
