spot on sir! Today commercials take ten seconds to say "use our product" followed by 30 seconds of rapidfire legalese from the Legal dept. to basically CYA
I have a feeling that the commercials were shot in color, there are great color footage of field shots that were probably filmed using field cameras so these studio footage of the 50's and 60's must have been filmed in color
And life was much harder in the past. Today it has become more simpler. As we know technology does everything for us. People tend to romanticise the past by only seeing what they want to see.
Love these old commercials, I was just a young child during that time. Shows how much our world has changed in 50+ years and how those times had changed from early 1900s. I shudder to think of the next 40+ years from now
I just turned 29 and I can't tell if everything is going to be fine and the news is being over dramatic.. or if everyone is about to get a new variant of C19, and that China and Russia are going to start a war with the US. It's a very strange time to be alive, and I feel like I'm not able to appreciate it.
That's my mom, the blonde in the Halo commercial at 7:40. She was in several commercials in the 50s, 60s and 70s. She was killed in Toronto Canada in 1985. Her grand daughter, my daughter who is 27 is the spitting image of her.
lola boden there was a commercial many years ago that had a man & his little boy under a shade tree. dad lit a cigarette and laid the pack down. little boy picks it up and starts to check it out. the last words of the commercial were "think about it" it was the only anti smoking commercial that i remember watching back then.
That first ad took a sharp left turn. "It's nice to go have a great Sunday meal at grandma's but sooner or later your low tolerance for family time can cause headaches. Good thing's Bayer is here to help you cope with your badass kids and your mother-in-law."
lol ... It looks like the father .. ( Ed Lauter .. who played 'Captain Knauer' in the film 'The Longest Yard' as well as appearing in many other films, including half a dozen in 1972 alone. Among his most prominent film roles were The Longest Yard (a.k.a. The Mean Machine) (1974), King Kong (1976), Magic (1978), Death Hunt (1981), Time-rider (1982) Death Wish 3 (1985), My Blue Heaven (1990), The Rocketeer (1991), Seraphim Falls (2006), and The Artist (2011). He also appeared in Cujo, as Cujos owner. ~ Lauter's television appearances included the role as the villain sheriff Martin Stillman in the How the West Was Won TV series, and guest-performances on The New Land, Psych, The X-Files (as Mulder's childhood hero, Gemini astronaut Col. Marcus Aurelius Belt in the season 1 episode "Space"), The Streets of San Francisco(on the series debut episode), Kojak, The A-Team, Miami Vice (season 3 episode 6 Shadow in the Dark), Magnum, P.I. (episode Operation Silent Night), Booker, Charmed, Highlander: The Series, Law & Order, Star Trek: The Next Generation (as Lt. Cmdr. Albert in the season 5 episode "The First Duty"), The Equalizer, The Waltons, and ER (with a recurring role as Fire Captain Dannaker). ~~Lauter was memorable in a rare leading role as Private Detective Bud Delaney in the 1975 NBC television movie "Last Hours Before Morning" ) was gonna slap the kid upside the head after dragging him out from under the table. The offending kid, is holding his head as if he had just been hit a second before. A big, swift BOOT in the ass would have no doubt followed ... ( if it was my dad ) ... lol ...
Their fault for serving MILK as a drink! A teacher in England gave me a bottle of milk (paid for the taxpayer: my parents fed me fine, I didn't need it) and I poured it down the classroom sink. Milk is good, sparingly, in tea, and as the basis of yoghurt and cheese. Why anyone not starving would actually drink it is a mystery.
Im 57 and I remember Cope from the late 60s my mom used to keep it for headaches but I didn't know it had a ` Gentle Relaxer' in it, No wonder she felt better after sha took it 🤔🤣🤣🤣
The first one is a Baer aspirin commercial staring Ed Lauter he used to date a friend of my family and one day they came to Ohio and she stopped by our house and he was a super nice guy and he just loved my 2 dogs and played with them for a long while, a year later they came back again and he remembered my dogs names(girly and ginger the wonder dogs) , I’m not so sure he remembered MY name lol but he knew the dogs , sadly he passed in 2013 he was a good dude
I recognized Ed Lauter. First thing I thought was, "That's Knauer from 'The Longest Yard.' " Recognize the dude snapping his fingers in the Chesterfield commercial? That's Dave Madden. He played Ruben Kincaid on "The Partridge Family."
At 10:07 I like what the nice brother did there., He gave his sister the package first from the mailbox, then he took his. Old-fashioned politeness. Love these vintage ads. Wow!

I was like...wow! Then looked up why they don’t make it anymore. The relaxer turned out to cause liver cancer. The modern day version is Excedrin. PM after the relaxer was reformulated.
Make sure you crush and snort them for maximum effect, eat a hefty diet of sloppy joes and instant pudding, and smoke plenty of chesterfield cigarettes. I’m a 1950’s doctor, so I know what’s best for your health.

My sweet little girl was crazy about Rootin' Tootin' Raspberry, because that was her nick name. She'd laugh & giggle, & of course, I bought it for her. I saved several empty packets, planning to frame them & make some cute wall art for her. I had those packets for a long, long time. They were in my jewelry box. I waited too long, as my jewelry box was stolen. My precious little girl passed away in 02/2020. She was 49. I'm looking everywhere for just one packet of Rootin'Tootin'Raspberry. I can hear her sweet laughter right now. Rest in peace my little Raspberry 😥
The second commercial, at 0:35, stars Dave Madden, who is probably most famous for his TV role as Reuben Kinkcaid, the nervous and sometimes overly-cautious manager of The Partridge Family.

I recall those commercials, including one that showed which cigarette is recommended by doctors. Another commercial I recall from that era, that I cannot find. It was for a bug spray black flag or raid which was supposed to NOT be poisonous to humans and was demonstrated when the announcer sprayed some of the bug spray on an apple-than he took a bite -CRUNCH!. Wish someone could find that one--but thanks this was fun to watch.

i grew up in the 2000s i watched commercials about what smoking does to the lungs- i remember watching one with a guy who had a hole in his neck and he was wheezing thru it. scared me for life
i'm 30 years old and for some reason i remember hearing all these commercials. did they repeat these same commercials for decades? i remember the exact words.
Well, I thoroughly enjoyed that nostalgic walk down memory lane. The Marx brothers, Jack Benny, Dennis Day, the 3 Stooges, and cereal that gave you the option of adding 2 teaspoons of straight sugar on the top-as opposed to the ones today that have the sugar built in already.

I can't count the number of times I've been fishing and had some man immediately offer me a smoke within the first 5 seconds of our engagement, and oddly it always ends with several more creepy men surrounding me and snapping their fingers. God damnit I love fishing!!
Milk of Magnesia. I haven't heard of that product for many years! Seeing the cartoonish images of Lucille Ball and Desi Arnez (15:00) reminded me of one of the most famous "commercial" pitches. In a 1952 "I Love Lucy" episode when she and Ricky were deciding what name to give to their expected baby. Lucy mentioned "Phillip" and "Morris" cleverly working their sponsor's name into the episode, which I'm sure was from the writers! Love that cute cat food commercial (18:46) with the grocer telling the cat why Puss & Boots dry food was good for it.
The ads on TV during the 1960s-1980s were cool. I liked them when new, and watch these oldies sometimes. The ads started to reek by 1990...mainly of insurance and prescription meds. I never smoked, but always liked cigarette ads cause of the jingles.
I remember when everyone washed their hair with Breck shampoo and used Aqua Net for hair spray, or the guys would use something called The Dry Look for hair spray. And you used Pepsodent toothpaste and Coppertone sun tan lotion. The guys would hope their girlfriends would end up looking like the "Coppertone twins", the blond teenage girls in the popular commercials. My parents had an old black-and-white Zenith TV that had wooden cabinets around it, and the cabinets would open and the TV would slightly extend out but you had to change the channels by hand. Life was so much more manageable back then. I also remember the one and only phone in the house being a rotary phone that was on the wall in the kitchen. Saturday nights were special because I would have a bubble bath and then the family would watch a full-length movie with commercials on 'Saturday Night at the Movies' on NBC-TV. And, of course, Ed Sullivan on Sunday nights.
Originally, but after complaints from families they switched sponsors. They later gave plugs for Welch's Grape Ade & Miles Laboratories pharmaceuticals.
what hasn't changed in commercials over the decades is that they're still playing on everyones insecurities. I can still smell what they did back then in todays adds or commercials..
They do that a lot more now. They used to directly talk about the actual products, but now it's standard to present some idealized image next to a product and make you feel kind of short of that ideal without the product
This is History...Thanks for posting....I am amazed at my Brain ----not seeing things for 50 years, and I remember it all, and still it's there, in my Brain...stored away...these old Commercials....the one's from the 1960's anyway....
Yeah there are illegal alternatives that work significantly better with single dose with zero long term side effects, but all the propaganda the government made about em made people think that you will jump out of a window. They were made illegal to promote war.
@M M If I remember my commercials right I believe it was a Playtex and it had "fingertip panels," apparently stiffening ridges, visible in the front. The commercial showed a fully clothed woman and invited her to "Place your fingertips so. " (She put both hands in front of her waist.) "Press in gently." (She did) "See?" The idea was the ridges in the front of the girdle pressed in like fingers.
Cross Your Heart bras for TWO DOLLARS AND FIFTY CENTS!!! (Unfortunately I wouldn’t be caught dead in a Madonna bra like that now! But I do remember them 😃)
I haven't seen Puss n Boots in stores in years. Mustn't have been that great. Zenith was a major name back then. I remember my dad got one and we were all excited. "It's a Zenith!"
My dad used to smoke Winston's. He always talked about the Flintstone commercial, he would even say the slogan. It's nice being able to actually see the commercial for myself.
OK I’m 80 years old and the only commercial I remember is Phillip Morris. What wasn’t mentioned was the tonic Hadacol, which was very popular in either the late 40s or early 50s. It was later found to be 12% alcohol. My grandmother, a self-righteous teetotaler, was very enthusiastic about it. This tickled my mother to no end, which makes me think that maybe she didn’t like her mother-in-law.
I didn't see any of my favorites. The only one I remember is the " Hard gloss Glo coat" ad the fred flintstone Winston cigarette ad, can you believe it . I loved the Winston cigarette jingle aluded to in this add but this ad gives that filter cigarette aftertaste being on a kid's show. The Chesrerfield Ad, the star actor i remember him on sitcoms but can't place which one . Nearly all these ads i dont remember and think they were never shown outtakes . I was born in 1950 and maybe the general tire commercial pre dated 1955 . Looks older than i was. The Jello instance pudding ad made me want to see Roy Roger's in " son of Pale face seen elsewhere on youtube. Philip Morris I remember the ads with the phillip Morris bell boy call but phillip Morris wasn't still marketed when I started smoking
@@robertbrawley5048 I think the actor you're trying to remember was Dave Madden, who was, I believe, on "The Partridge Family." I don't remember his character's name, but I think he was the manager for the Partridges. He was also one of the regulars on "Rowan And Martin's Laugh-In." I don't recall what other shows he was on, though.

I recall those commercials, including one that showed which cigarette is recommended by doctors. Another commercial I recall from that era, that I cannot find. It was for a bug spray black flag or raid which was supposed to NOT be poisonous to humans and was demonstrated when the announcer sprayed some of the bug spray on an apple-than he took a bite -CRUNCH!. Wish someone could find that one--but thanks this was fun to watch.
My childhood MD smoked. Good God.
I lived for all of that "mail in" stuff! It's what made childhood back then such an exciting time of life. How I wish we could return to the general decency of life that existed back when!
I always wanted those sea monkeys! 😂
That was adorable...send in your waist measurements w/a genuine "MAVERICK" buckle!
@@Mhel2023 Omg, I wonder if they were real creatures? Like little fishies or something...probably not something moms wanted their kids to send away for...might get loose in the house, hahaha!
Plus, some cigarette packs (Camel & Marlboro) had coupons...collect enough & get free stuff.

So do I. I’m glad I grew up during that time.

If those cigarettes are to scale Fred is about 3 feet tall. Not sure whether it was the cigs or evolution that stunted his growth.
I'm old enough to remember the cigarette ads on TV

i grew up in the 2000s i watched commercials about what smoking does to the lungs- i remember watching one with a guy who had a hole in his neck and he was wheezing thru it. scared me for life
i'm 30 years old and for some reason i remember hearing all these commercials. did they repeat these same commercials for decades? i remember the exact words.
Well, I thoroughly enjoyed that nostalgic walk down memory lane. The Marx brothers, Jack Benny, Dennis Day, the 3 Stooges, and cereal that gave you the option of adding 2 teaspoons of straight sugar on the top-as opposed to the ones today that have the sugar built in already.
I add 1 teaspoons of sugar on my frosted flakes.
Sugar built in😅😅
They had sugar in cereal back then too, they just encouraged kids to add more lol
Some cereals in the '60s had "sugar" in their name: Super Sugar Crisp, Sugar Pops, Sugar Frosted Flakes
I am 70 and yes I remember these well....
Good news my pappy smoked, hated the smell so never developed the habit.. 🙄😏😁
my pappy drank hated the smell so I never drink alcohol.
My mother smoked four packs of Pall Mall cigarettes a day. I hear that they're one of the harshest cigarettes you can smoke.
I never developed the habit, but I think I developed bronchitis from secondary smoke

Sorry to read..and most likely..
Lost aunt from smoking same to lung cancer and girlfriend (she was 35 at time) with emphysema..
So good for you..
@@NR-nf1il holy crap, four packs!? That's crazy.
I sure miss those simpler days. Thanks Fred
I can't count the number of times I've been fishing and had some man immediately offer me a smoke within the first 5 seconds of our engagement, and oddly it always ends with several more creepy men surrounding me and snapping their fingers.
God damnit I love fishing!!
I can't help thinking on "Mad men". Great upload. 😊
Must be a barrel of laughs when they conceived those ladies' undergarments ads. 🤣
Milk of Magnesia. I haven't heard of that product for many years! Seeing the cartoonish images of Lucille Ball and Desi Arnez (15:00) reminded me of one of the most famous "commercial" pitches. In a 1952 "I Love Lucy" episode when she and Ricky were deciding what name to give to their expected baby. Lucy mentioned "Phillip" and "Morris" cleverly working their sponsor's name into the episode, which I'm sure was from the writers! Love that cute cat food commercial (18:46) with the grocer telling the cat why Puss & Boots dry food was good for it.
The ads on TV during the 1960s-1980s were cool. I liked them when new, and watch these oldies sometimes. The ads started to reek by 1990...mainly of insurance and prescription meds. I never smoked, but always liked cigarette ads cause of the jingles.
I was singing along with the fritio bandito commercial
Wow that was a long time ago lol
Nailed all the words. Hehe
I'm having nightmares from now on about a chimpanzee stabbing me like I'm a tire inner tube (5:38).
Ah, those were the days - when commercials were long enough to get part of your homework done.
Me: watches 30 min video of ads
Also me: *immediately clicks skip ads in the mid roll*
😂 me too😊
I remember when everyone washed their hair with Breck shampoo and used Aqua Net for hair spray, or the guys would use something called The Dry Look for hair spray. And you used Pepsodent toothpaste and Coppertone sun tan lotion. The guys would hope their girlfriends would end up looking like the "Coppertone twins", the blond teenage girls in the popular commercials. My parents had an old black-and-white Zenith TV that had wooden cabinets around it, and the cabinets would open and the TV would slightly extend out but you had to change the channels by hand. Life was so much more manageable back then. I also remember the one and only phone in the house being a rotary phone that was on the wall in the kitchen. Saturday nights were special because I would have a bubble bath and then the family would watch a full-length movie with commercials on 'Saturday Night at the Movies' on NBC-TV. And, of course, Ed Sullivan on Sunday nights.
Someone in the tRump circle leaked that tRump’s favorite brand of hair spray was Aquanet.
The was also QT suntan lotion (made by Coppertone)-- "You get a Quick Tan, a double tan, when you use... QT" (And "QT" was a play on "cutie")
All I know is that those *Zenith* radios are no joke! My grandma gave me her old *clock/radio* about 26 years ago-and it still works perfectly.
Just love it. Brings back wonderful memories. Thank you.
Ah....remember when you could have a smoke AND watch cartoons?
@John Taylor It's called sarcasm Johnny boy.
I mean...we still do that know 😅
No, he has a point here. In my country the president banned smoking. Ofc no one gives an aff here and still do it.
I just ordered my Maverick belt on Amazon Prime. Should be here tomorrow.
Is that the one with the condom compartment on the back of the belt buckle? 😆
Never knew the flintstones was brought to you by, Winston cigarettes, the way a cigarette should taste! *drags on cig*
Originally, but after complaints from families they switched sponsors. They later gave plugs for Welch's Grape Ade & Miles Laboratories pharmaceuticals.
After seeing the Winston commercial, I can remember seeing it. Never thought much about it. It was common.
Silas excellent job.The best commercial anthology I've seen.
what hasn't changed in commercials over the decades is that they're still playing on everyones insecurities. I can still smell what they did back then in todays adds or commercials..
They do that a lot more now. They used to directly talk about the actual products, but now it's standard to present some idealized image next to a product and make you feel kind of short of that ideal without the product
Aspirin and visiting Grandma - goes together like kids and shouting!
In the Bayer Aspirin commercial the guy in it taking the Bayer is classic character actor Ed Lauter aka The Longest Yard etc..
I thought that was him.
NHseacoast game ball !!! Dave Madden in next one,
And that was a high quality glass bottle of Bayer not cheap plastic.
So basically they liked shining hair, cars and smoking😂
Groucho Marx for De Soto. 😁
And a clean house.
And a delicious, nutritious breakfast
...and headache meds
Almost everyone smoked back then. Many paid the price later.
From the Department of Insane Trivia -- is that Dave Madden (of Laugh-In and Partridge Family fame) in the Chesterfield finger-shapping commercial?
Yes it is!!!!

This is History...Thanks for posting....I am amazed at my Brain ----not seeing things for 50 years, and I remember it all, and still it's there, in my Brain...stored away...these old Commercials....the one's from the 1960's anyway....
Love it. They way it used to be. The good ol’ days.
Yea, the "good ol' days", when cartoon characters advertised cigarettes! Just kidding, I love these old commercials, too.
@J E Nothing wrong with being white.
No thanks... I would hate to grow up in the 50’s and 60’s 😶

19:46 Man... Snap Crackle Pop can really groove. I never knew.
These cigarette commercials are no different than the drug companies today pushing their crap on tv. Just listen to all their side effects.
Teresa Gib except the modern drugs have terrible side effects like suicide.
I agree, read the fine print, they are all dangerous
With the crap in today's modern ahem...'remedies', I'll take my chances on smoking.
side effects are mostly just disclaimers so they don't get sued most of those side effects are indeed very rare
Yeah there are illegal alternatives that work significantly better with single dose with zero long term side effects, but all the propaganda the government made about em made people think that you will jump out of a window. They were made illegal to promote war.
One constant remains in the advertising industry and that is using celebrity endorsements.
Wayne Johnson reminds me of Mad Men, when Don said celebrity endorsements are lazy. Lol
Also psychological ques like snapping, singing, repetition and surreal happiness
"How'd you know I was Jack Benny?"
"Who else would buy one gallon?"

My mom had a cross your heart bra and that five finger girdle, neither one of them worked.
Yes it did work on skinny people to keep them that way... it made them so tight they couldnt eat any more but a little.
@M M If I remember my commercials right I believe it was a Playtex and it had "fingertip panels," apparently stiffening ridges, visible in the front. The commercial showed a fully clothed woman and invited her to "Place your fingertips so. " (She put both hands in front of her waist.) "Press in gently." (She did) "See?" The idea was the ridges in the front of the girdle pressed in like fingers.
Those bra's were good only when you wanted your tomatoes look perfect on the vine.
If you wore 4 of the 'lose 5lb girdles' would you lose 20 pounds?
Thanks for the video. Most of these commercials I've never seen. I've seen a lot of Flintstone cartoons and I don't remember them smoking.
The smoking stuff ended pretty quickly when they realized that a lot of kids (like me) were watching.
Me: Half a year since I quit smoking
UA-cam recommendations: Pss, guy. Do you want to watch some TV Commercials from the ' 50s?
I had no idea Fred and Barney smoked.
Robin Johnson Only at the quarry, out of the sight of the younger generation.
😲 omg! I wonder what else those two ne'er do good bums do. They probably did a Papbst Blue Ribbon commercial after this Winston ad.
Only in commercials never in the cartoon

Boy these take me back.
I haven't seen Puss n Boots in stores in years. Mustn't have been that great. Zenith was a major name back then. I remember my dad got one and we were all excited. "It's a Zenith!"
Apparently all Puss in Boots had to offer was repackaging traditional dried cat food in tiny bags and selling it as a new idea 😆
Puss & Boots, my cat turned up his nose at it.
Morris pretty much invaded the cat food market not too long after that aired
That Jello Instant Pudding song gives me the creeps.

LOL, family get togethers cause headaches and being a mother of one child causes headaches.
My dad used to smoke Winston's. He always talked about the Flintstone commercial, he would even say the slogan. It's nice being able to actually see the commercial for myself.
Ads in the middle of.....ads! Never thought I'd see the day.....
a girl with a tee shirt that says beef and pork lol that will be a hit for sure
"what do the kids think?" And the actress looks about 30 😆

Lmfao.
That Zorro clip with the singing and narration had me laughing the whole time.
I grew up with these. Now I know why I needed therapy, lol.
Must have been the tire ad with the monkey that did it. 🐵
OK I’m 80 years old and the only commercial I remember is Phillip Morris. What wasn’t mentioned was the tonic Hadacol, which was very popular in either the late 40s or early 50s. It was later found to be 12% alcohol. My grandmother, a self-righteous teetotaler, was very enthusiastic about it. This tickled my mother to no end, which makes me think that maybe she didn’t like her mother-in-law.
1950's "Bayer works wonders"
1990's "Prozac works wonders"

Whiskey? Not sure about that. Maybe prescription drugs or weed.

Anybody else binge watching 50's to 70's commercials? Also, bloopers from same time period?
Meee
I didn't see any of my favorites. The only one I remember is the " Hard gloss Glo coat" ad the fred flintstone Winston cigarette ad, can you believe it . I loved the Winston cigarette jingle aluded to in this add but this ad gives that filter cigarette aftertaste being on a kid's show. The Chesrerfield Ad, the star actor i remember him on sitcoms but can't place which one . Nearly all these ads i dont remember and think they were never shown outtakes . I was born in 1950 and maybe the general tire commercial pre dated 1955 . Looks older than i was. The Jello instance pudding ad made me want to see Roy Roger's in " son of Pale face seen elsewhere on youtube.
Philip Morris I remember the ads with the phillip Morris bell boy call but phillip Morris wasn't still marketed when I started smoking
@@robertbrawley5048
I think the actor you're trying to remember was Dave Madden, who was, I believe, on "The Partridge Family." I don't remember his character's name, but I think he was the manager for the Partridges.
He was also one of the regulars on "Rowan And Martin's Laugh-In."
I don't recall what other shows he was on, though.
@@michaelpalmieri7335 thanks that helps to piece the puzzle maybe I had seen him on the Rowan and Martin show per your telling
