Do you remember the one that had Rowlf the dog from The Muppets? David was dressed like Santa and Rowlf was spying on him while the jingle went "David's the name for your kind of Christmas". I have looked everywhere for that ad. It's like the one thing you can't find on the internet
Wow! I'm just glad it's not a figment of my imagination. I was maybe eight years old when that came out. They used to show it during the Santa and Toy Boy show in Wichita, Kansas, and also during breaks on Captain Kangaroo
At first I thought it was off of Webb road. Then I discovered it was off of Greenwich rd. That's the most important thing I could think of to put on this video commentary.
Purchased by ALCO-Duckwall in 1984 which hit financial headwinds in the late 1980s, early 1990s due to direct competition with Walmart in several cities...
Loved those David's commercials, especially those Christmas spots.

I think I recall when David's was the last thing one saw, before the city limits and wheat fields.

You can't forget their roof leaks during a rain.
I liked their zig zag wall because it was disorienting. And I love disorientation.
Who produced this?
What happened to David's?
Stu228 They just went out of business due to poor sales.
Claudey Brewer I found out they were purchased by ALCO.
He got drafted in Vietnam and fragged his CO
