Immediately after the promo for Ensign O'Toole and Walt Disney, you catch a fleeting glimpse of Boston area children's show host Bob Caudle, aka "Captain Bob." If I'm not mistaken, I believe that's Paul Winchell as the king in that Chocks ad. In the Kool Aid Winter Olympics spot, that's Hal Smith (Otis from The Andy Griffith Show) doing the voice of Elmer Fudd. In that Crest spot, that's character actor Karl Weber showing off his "yardstick." Karl, no matter what you may tell your wife, there's no way that little thing you have is three feet long (wink wink). David Doyle from Charlie's Angels is the husband in the Viking carpet commercial.
The Wheat Chex Sleeping Beauty commercial is what many today might call sexist...possibly even misogynistic. "...In days of yore, a prince never got his own breakfast...Hey you! Wake up!" Even back then, a woman would most likely say "Get it thyself, Prince Valiant!"
52:57- Originally seen in 1968. Paul Reed is "Mr. Krumble". Sandy Becker, announcer. 53:28- 54:28 -Originally seen in 1968. Arthur Godfrey speaks for Axion.
Originally seen in 1960. 1) Rolfe Sedan as "Gladstone". 2) Rolfe Sedan as "Heinrich". 3:26-7:08 Originally seen in 1962. 7:10- 13:19 Originally seen in 1963. Paul Winchell {as "The King"} at 9:16.
The Mounds candy bar spot is V/O'ed by the great Peter Thomas. Legendary college football coach Bud Wilkinson speaks about physical fitness for children.
A lot of these commercials were actually at the end of the 1950s that carried over to the early 1960s Fruit Stripe gum was the first gum at my mom ever gave me Totino's Pizza Rolls was the last time I saw the Lone Ranger and Tonto
That commercial for Silvercup is by far the WORST commercial I have ever seen in my 60 years on this planet! Nothing but an overly long commercial by a grovelling ad man grovelling to an audience of bored and pissed off looking kids. Probably why Silvercup didn't make it on the map!

Aww, someone learned how to read Wikipedia pages & copy/paste the info onto UA-cam comment sections. Adorable. Let’s get this person a cookie.

I concur. It is atrocious.
What did you expect from 50's live kid's TV? 🤨
