I wish someone would annotate this to explain the jokes. I get some of them, like the question about Frutiger and the secretary wearing the Selectric balls as earrings. But there are other jokes that I think you’d have to be in IBM to get, like the joke about composer. I’m assuming it was a product?
Notice the Mickey Mouse clock behind Rowlf? Foreshadowing the future there.
Classic funny stuff
Joe Raposo, I take it, was the guy behind
the music in this IBM film from 1969, months
before Sesame Street debuted on Public TV!
I definitely never expected Early Green Grover to appear in this nor even team up with Rowlf.
I like these old IBM films, I love Rowlf as well.
Holy cow! Thanks for sharing this!
Hmm. That musical typist looks familiar😏👍
Consider Rowlf blessed and lucky. Not a lot of familiar Muppets were created during nor even part of The 60’s.
Has to be the peak of the company in 1969 before mini computer and non ma, lBM was the Apple of its day

Recognise the actors? I think I spot the late Arlene Golonka

This reminds me of the muppet show sex and violence where every sketch jumps from place to place instead of introducing them
That makes sense because they were both based on Laugh-In.
Wait, Jerry Nelson is in this????

Back when comedians knew how to be comedians and when women knew how to be comediennes as well. Makes me wish that SNL never made its debut.
