I'm not an insomniac, just a huge fan of retro advertising. Glad I clicked on. Great stuff!
I grew up in the 60's. We were lucky and got a nice Zenith color TV in 67. We went out on bought it on s Saturday morning and when we got it home a golf tournament was on and the green greens looked amazing. This was the dawning of a new day - a lot like the first HD TV you got was in the 2000's. We were too cheap to buy a remote control though (this was WAY before cable, which game by default with a remote to surf all those new channels), so I lay on the floor a few feet from the TV and used my big toe to push the channel button.
Sitting on the floor close to the TV was a thing even with remote control :D Probably why i wear glasses even though no relative does.
We were barely middle-class. 1600 sq ft house. I don't recall if my friends had color but I kind of think 67 would have been about the time color TV was becoming mainstream, similar to the HD era when you could buy one for about 1 k. Anyway, we were very far from rich. My Mom was a secretary and my dad sold TV time for a local TV station. @MonsieurPogo
Gee, if you don’t look closely you won’t see the 25 foot cord that connects the Predicta picture tube to its control cabinet.
And the 20,000 volts running through it will be no trouble at all!
I would love to see one of the TV repair channels go over one of those predictas. Would be insane if the flyback was in the tuner cabinet and they ran the 20kV thru that cable.
Maypo, lol, I was 6 in 1966, batman, superman and voyage to the bottom of the sea were my favs, TV definitely had an effect on me, I'm still watching it right now, although my screen is only about 4" × 8"
I still use an Early Model Color TV here, Howdy Doody and Batman in Color !
Took a bit to crackle warm up. Tuner went 'Puh-Thunk Puh-Thunk. Five six channels. Rabbit ears. Nothing after Midnight really. Shut it off and it shrinks to a spot. Glorious times kids. Really.
It's like it's after dinner at my grandparents house. 😌
Warm up the television
I remember Elizabeth Montgomery making an announcement "Stay tuned for Bewitched, Now in Color" i was like 5 years old.
2 Philco sets in our home. One French Provincial console for Mom's shows in the living room, and Dad's Danish Modern in the family room for his Maple Leaf hockey games.
If there's one thing I can't stand, it's French Provincial or Early American television sets. It's a television, not a friggin' piece of furniture.
yesterdays pictures bring back that old familiar flavor
Love this channel. Retro Futurism 🇺🇸❤
There were lots of things wrong with the 50's, but the optimism is refreshing.
I was alive in the '50s.. I don't recall " lots of things wrong".. I believe you mean there were lots of things RIGHT in the 50s...
@@Nunofurdambiznez some of it was good, but there was a lot of crap, too.
What was wrong with the fifties? Compared to what? The wonderland we’re living in right now? Please, bring back the fifties and I wasn’t alive during the fifties.
@@Nunofurdambiznez rose colored glasses. Old people always look back and remember the good things while repressing/pretending the bad didn't happen. If you remember the 50s fondly, i can already guess what you're referring to as "right".
@@heartofjesusdj oh bless your heart
What a GREAT VIDEO ! I love the faux "EDWARD R. MURROW" Announcer for "SPOT" TELEVISION ! This is when TV'S were furniture. My parents bought their first TV when I was 4 years old in 1949. It was a Motorola with a 16-inch screen. I grew up in Northern California in the 50s and we only had maybe 3 or 4 channels by 1951 and not 24 hours a day. Amazing how far TV has come. Who would have thought that when I was 4 years old watching "Howdy Doody", that a Giagantic flatscreen tv you could hang on a wall was waiting for me in the future !
I was born in 1954 in a Chicago suburb, but we didn't have a TV until 1958. In actual fact there were TV broadcasts in the late 1920's but the Great Depression and WWII delayed TV being available to the general public until after WWII.
I noticed in old movies from the thirties sometimes TV screens pop up in strange situations. Not the family sitting around watching the news, but I think in science fiction movies.
@@hermanhale9258- I've seen that in a couple of 1930's movies myself. Maybe the media thought TV would take off sooner than it did.
That Zenith pitchman's delivery was about as exciting as watching paint dry. I imagine all the salesmen who watched it fell asleep before it was over.
Excellent editing and producing! Thank you!
Thank you for posting 👍👍
They didn't get as good a picture because of the short gun on the back of the picture tube. We had old TVs because my parents had four kids and a mortgage on a house to pay with a one income family. It was before a lot of women worked.
Fantastic love this channel and you seem like a great guy. That matters, thanks!
I have repaired Tube TV's and radios. I for one am glad the tube era was replaced by solid state components. The old tube stuff was made to fail if you ask me just by design.
I know the "TV repairman" was a profession in demand. Most TV's needed repair within a year or two of purchase and would need multiple services to stay in operation for any length of time. I remember taking the tubes down to the drugstore and plugging them into the tube tester and buying 2 or 3 new tubes taking them all home and plugging them back in and get the thing running again.
My stingy stepdad. We didn't get a color TV until 1980.
But you can't raise bread dough on top of modern tv's!@@Lethgar_Smith
And the new stuff isn't?..🙄
“Hello! Vault Tech calling!” 🚀
Brings back memories of my dad…”don’t sit so close to the TV…you’ll get radiation poisoning!” or “you’re watching television again?….do you have televitis ?”
Yeah, my grandmother used to say I'd get square eyes because I watched so much TV. late 1960s to 1970s
@@marekryszardI'm sure I heard variations of that in the 80's.
He sounds like a moron.
I 💖 the Predicta model 📺 !!!!
A boring presentation about TV marketing made hilarious with some weird stuff from Bob and Ray. This is the first I have really heard them before and I loved this. I also love that 50's Philco TV.
1:20 Gotta love how she loves the kiddy show.
Young People - feel for the over 60s for once
Americans are probably more used to erecting a 2nd antenna or ariel to gain more channels. in Britain tv choice was beyond backward because we had just 3 channels until 1982. there was 4 if you were middle class & could fork out 10 weeks wages for a VCR in 1980 & Cable was something reserved for Swindon & London from the mid 80s along with Satellite in German or Dutch from 1985. The only option otherwise was a Regional variation in the National iTV network. Only those in back of beyond locations where coverage overlaps occurred,had an option of buying high gain antenna & mounting the rig as high above the ground as possible then perhaps an early evening or late night choice of either Ironside /Canon /Mc Cloud / Rockford Files /Kojak ( detective shows from America ) say from the neighbouring region vs in my old folks region usually showing Murder She Wrote & the different region news programmes of 50 minutes at teatime repeated at 22:30. If the weather didn’t bore you to death TV in Britain before 1982 would. Punk was inevitable.
It’s no wonder they had larger families back then.
Was having trouble sleeping so out of the blue looked up sleepcore. Im so glad i did. I LOVE the 1950s look and history 🥺
Yes it a another sleepcore 😮
1:08 I'm carrying my tablet over to my dining room table right now, to watch this!

I love the piece on advertising advertising. And I still want a Predicta Tandem. Thanks for another fun, informative upload.
That’s got to be Bob and Ray on the Edward R Murrow Spot TV advertising section.
The Predicta used a long, thick cable to connect the picture tube to the TV. This cable carried very high voltage. If your dog or cat started chewing on it...good bye pet!
Really? I wondered. They don't show the cable.
Oh, they do. Missed it the first time.
No wonder I didn't remember that tv. Surely it wasn't on the market very long.
Wow,philco invented the portable tv.
Really interesting to see some of your ads and promotional features here in the UK.
Not sure I would have pleasant dreams after seeing the clown in the RCA colour TV ad, more likely to have terrifying nightmares! 🤭🤣
Is this a bit of Bob and Ray? They were the best. Hard to find, would love to hear more.
I was 9year old when my parents got a 📺 when they came out then 😊😮 watching cartoons and Surperman
A time capsule of the ancient days of Television & its related technology. 📺
I loveeee retro/vintage TVs. Wish I had one!
Wow, that was Sue Randall (Miss Landers on Leave it to Beaver) in the first commercial!
is the spot tv thing done by bob and ray?
Yes!
@@jerrywithers8118 comedic geniuses
When tomorrow allowed looking into the future; how's that again?
God Bless Bob & Ray.
They should revive Bob & Rays' "Complication" board game that used all sorts of pieces, including peppermint patties! People nowadays are too afraid to venture beyond Risk and 3D chess!
At about 3 min in, the guy sounds like Edward R Murrow, and that "chairman" might have been Chairman Minnow...
"One year warranty excluding labor." Wow. Starting at $495. Which is about $7500 now!
I luv retro stuff. I dont remember any of this really, even tho i grew up in the 60s
That Philco Safari TV sure looks like the tri-corder on Star Trek
Move the PREDICTA to another room... then you had to go to another room to change the channel.
Sure miss my MOMS
I wonder why the separate chassis and screen did not catch on.
Listening to this video now with my Philco powered tube amp.
The previous video in my queue was coverage of Aaron Bushnell's self-immolation.
Getting hit with "WOW-OO-WOW-OO-WOWWW" felt weirdly appropriate
This is all warm and fuzzy
I hear Bob & Ray doing some of the voices in the "Spot TV" film.
My dad had voice activated tv remote control… he would say what channel he wanted and I would have change it
@18:17 he mentions 'jiffy' peanut butter, it displays 'jif', the Mandela effect goes back to the 1960s by the looks of it.
Every once in a while, something slips through like this did. It was JIFFY when I was a kid in the 70's and I remember the logo well.
Well, there is a peanut butter brand called "Skippy" and I can see how people would commonly mix the two names together creating a third imaginary brand called Jiffy.
There could also have been an off-brand or an in-store brand that tried to copy Jiff labeling, creating a false memory about a product that no longer exists and only a few people vaguely recall.
Ed McMahan was the TV spokesman for American Family Publishers, a competitor of Publishers Clearing House.
False memories occur way more often than people think.
Good catch
Totally said JIF called it JIFFY, no wonder .
One of those reversed circumstances where the show is awful but the ads are a delight. Do yourself a favor and fast forward until about the 20-minute mark.
I remember dad bringing home an old black and white console in the 80's. It had an over lay plastic sheet with a green, red, yellow circle on it. Like a bullseye....
Any ideas what that was?
Pictured on the TV is the Bomarc missile..
No printed circuits = point to point rat's nest when you flip over the chassis.
I seriously wonder if the crystal ball of ancient times wasn't just a form of CRT....
Damn this is crazy ! "Television has changed our life in only 10 years" now we have tiktok and social media !!!
70 years later, it's still a Vast Waste Land.
😽TY for posting
That technicolor short is technicolor or it would be magenta, It looks like it was in 1962.
May Pole serial was pretty good I remember.
SCIENCE! They have blinded me with Science....😱📺
35:22 why are all the tvs off? weird. frighteningly weird
What will they think of next?
Lol i see the Predicta TV prophecy as i send the video from my phone to my Flat screen TV across the room with WIFI and Bluetooth. I could have it come on in the kids room if i wanted and even troll my next door neighbor by sending something mildly inappropriate over to their flat screen. 😏 🤣
One year warranty wasn't enough for a color TV!
Westview NJ vibes
How about was meant to be seen by the artist?
It is the one eyed monster.
Zinth didn't introduce equally portable color t.v's in 67
I cringed when that family’s mom picked up the TV and moved it near the dinner table. That pretty much explains what happened to quality family time at the dinner hour over the last 60 years or so.
I was thinking the same thing. Lol.
Yep. Was gonna make a post linking that moment saying essentially the same.
EARTH VS THE FLYING SAUCERS ! ! !
Was that first tv Bluetooth?
God bless Capitalism
Fallout
Those generic robotic voices back then
This narrator has to go! Wow! I simply couldn't listen.
Why are mucho volks these days nasty while some are very nice I am nursing home resident well it has happen all over in my travels volks are nasty at times oh that is a ladies shirt they are in business to sell take your dinero Some clothes wash places laundry look at me when the wash is mixed sex I gave them business $$$$$$$dinero who should care sex wise should doctors nurses now girls are fixing cars or doing male jobs some volks are picky mucho i am a picky dresser business person.

Wow does the narrator speak strangely! His voice drops deeply at the end of each sentence. It's quite annoying to me.
Talk to your social worker about it.
Was thinking that too
"BORING"
Amazing! Imagine that, a 17 inch tv. It's unbelievable.
30:30 Wow the charisma. And such a hottie, too.
