I swear I had the same recording on vhs when I was 7. Watching this brings my childhood back in Charleston.

Wild that representation was so unheard at this time. Glad our world is starting to wake up.
Thanks for sharing these commercials.

If that dolly show came on today, it would have the best network tv ratings of the month.
