Its like traveling in time back then and seeing exactly what theyd see on tv and seeing what was normal to be represented at that time. Ya cant tell me you wouldnt wanna travel back in time for a day either. You aint wierd, youre smart
Had a Swinger in 1966...novel item! Each film roll contained about 8 shots and you DID need to coat each print with the sealer stick or they'd soon fade away. The film was expensive, but I still have pix from the mid-60s today in good condition. Quite an advanced thing for the 60s!
The Polaroid Swinger. Only $19.95. What you may not realize is that $19.95 in 1965, adjusted for inflation in today's dollars would be around $190.00. Not kidding.
The Polaroid Swinger was awesome. In the commercial they actually told you the price AND sang the instructions to you. Nowadays they don't do that anymore.
The Swing-Wing is hands-down - and heads-up - the weirdest toy ever put on the American market. Still, for perspective, at the 1988 Olympic opening ceremony a troupe of Korean dancers swung just a headgear in time and unison. They were part of the cultural show.
Same here. Fun to see these kids "before they were stars". Did you know Maureen McCormick provided the voice for Chatty Cathy years before she became Marcia Brady?
@@dougcowles1116The original voice for Mattel's Chatty Cathy was June Foray. That's why she also did the voice of Talky Tina in that Twilight Zone episode with Telly Savalas. It's the same voice as Chatty Cathy.
Commercials out today, we hate them. We mute them, change the channel, get up and use the bathroom ect.. when they turn 50+ years old we watch them on UA-cam.... logic 🤣😂😂
Always fun picking out celebrities in these commercials. The lion one, the little boy played Jody in Family Affair. Then there's Ali McGraw in the Swinger commercial
The Swing Wing was a step others dream. Just imagine the witch would say to her step child 'Go outside and do the swing wing for an hour non stop. The children in the Larry The Lion commercial were Johnny Whitaker and Pamelyn Ferdin.
The Polaroid Swinger ad featured a young Ali McGraw, and the theme song was sung by Barry Manilow. It was created by the famous agency Doyle Dane Bernbach, and shows up on most industry lists of the greatest ad campaigns of all time. They also created the "Think Small" ads for Volkswagen. The camera was also revolutionary in many ways. It was the first Polaroid with a molded plastic body (instead of the folding bellows design), and it had an amazingly modern user interface. Young people don't remember a time when you couldn't take pictures and view them instantly, but Polaroids were the only cameras in those days that could do that. They're called "Land cameras" after Edwin Land, founder of Polaroid, who created the chemistry, after his young daughter asked him why pictures he'd taken during a walk together would take so long before she could see them.
Spaldeen - a new release on Amazon by an author I’ve been following for a couple of years. My dad used to tell me about the little ball he played stickball with in the Brooklyn neighborhood where he grew up. …A novel approach to storytelling, but I enjoyed it and flipped my copy to my dad. I think he’ll like it.
I believe it was recalled after a short time because it was injuring kids and if not it should’ve been because it definitely looks stupid not just in concept but safety-wise too.
I was a very lucky teen ager, for Christmas my brother bought me the "swinger." All my friends were totally jealous. Matter of fact my parents were moving in 2002 mom found that old camera in the attic.
@@lilykeks1065 I sure wish you could have seen the many treasures we found that had been packed away. Things that were bought from Montgomery Wards that dated back in the early 50s. Still in the box never used!
hmmmm...the "swing wing"could either be a training device for headbanging, or something that could bring about premature brain damage/concussion symptoms in young people...what will they think of next???
+WAQWBrentwood That would make the "Swing Wing" kind of a 'gateway' drug, I guess...I was only 10 years old in 1965 so it would be a little while before I was exposed to "better living through chemistry"...smoking cigarettes had not even crossed my radar (yet)...
sure was! you could probably buy a meal for 2 at a fancy restaurant for 20 bucks back then. the '70s were crazy when it came to inflation. now it takes 20 bucks to get a good hamburger
@@bogeysbaby Pamela Ferdin. She made LOTS of TV appearances (60s/70s) but never had a starring role. Played Felix Unger's daughter in a couple episodes of The Odd Couple and was the youngest girl in the original "Beguiled" with Clint Eastwood.
Anyone remember Click-Clacks? Colored glass balls on a nylon cord with a loop that went around one ankle? Good times. When my cast came off. Hey who needs two fully functioning ankles.
I think Suave originally made inexpensive versions of top shampoos (I say cheap versions. I remember the shampoo smelling like dish detergent & the conditioner smelling like laundry detergent & a clump of hair in my hand) then they branched out to hand lotion & deodorant & stuff like that.
@@lisam4066 now I understand why my mom said never to use Suave shampoo, she said it burned her scalp. That would've been in the 60s. I tried to tell her it was fine in the 90s and 2000s.
What's cool about watching these old ads is when you recognize actors who went on to became well known tv stars. A young Johnny Whitaker (Family Affair and Sigmund the Seamonster) can be seen as a very young child actor in one of the toy ads.
I remember the ad for the Poloroid Swinger. I don't recall if we ever had this camera, but I do remember the jingle for it ("Hey, meet the Swinger, the Poloroid Swinger, meet the Swinger, the Poloroid Swinger, etc."). I think that was one of my favorite commercial jingles.
I was born in 64, so it would be a little young for the swing wing, but I don’t recall seeing my older cousins with one ever! I’ll have to ask them if they remember it…
Bought the Swinger for my grandmom. We had that camera for over 20yrs. To this day, one of the best cameras I ever owned! Still have most of the photos
Yeah, He handed it down to me, and I used it in the USAF until the early 90’s. Film was about 3 bucks, and development of film on base about 6 dollars per 24-36 pictures with negatives. I remember in the Service then if the photo shop felt you took what they considered a restricted area photo, you wouldn’t get it. More serious the police might show up at the barracks! But I remember that they swiped a few pictures of my girlfriend too. The Rats! Some people.
Yeah, I can see why the Swing Wing didn't catch on for long. Wow, that Polaroid Swinger is bulkier than my old Pentax K100 SLR camera, and of course it looks huge compared to today's tiny digital cameras.
The interesting point that i really wanna know about these 40s/50s/60s ads is how did they edit those ads because there were no computer yet in back old decades.
The Swing Wing had to be one of the dumbest concepts that ever existed from a toy company! 🤔😲 I wonder how many children were admitted to the emergency room with headaches, neck problems, head trauma, etc etc... Glad I wasn't around to have to receive this for a gift! What parent would think this was a good idea ... 🤕🤢😨😩🤣
watching videos from the 60's feels like I'm watching it in a closed, cramped up place for some reason. Sometimes it feels like I'm about to die and my senses are going numb particularly my sight and hearing lol.
Couldn't believe the Crest commercial with the two stars of THE MOTHERS-IN-LAW (Eve Arden and Kaye Ballard). Used to love that show...but I don't remember ever seeing the commercial.

Good way to get whiplash😀
At least the swing wing gave you a little buzz. I don't get fidget spinners at all. LOL.
OMG, that looks so weird.
oh wow! a live commercial of kay.ballard and the gal from our miss Brooks and grease on The Mother's In Law,tv show
I’m 15 and people find it weird that I like watching old tv commercials. There’s just something about them that I find so interesting lmfao

Yeah, something to get for a kid you don't like very much.
That ad should have ended with "Headache tablets not included."
No wonder those '60s kids ended up doing drugs.
Who envented the Swing Wing was smart. That's using your head 😂.

$212.00 and it looked really cheap for the time period.
Dang I had no clue
Poloroid cameras also went up a lot
Do polar bears get polaroids from sitting on ice too long???😁
I remembered the lyrics. Catchy!
Why is it that I can still sing the Roto-Rooter jingle after 50+ years, but I can't remember what I just got up to do? 😁

I thought that looked like Johnny Whitaker!
And a very young Pamelyn Ferdin was the little girl.
