This is the ABSOLUTE BEST!!!!!

I'm guessing the NBC promos are possibly the only prints in existence - networks were notorious for not keeping their history. Fantastic stuff - well done Free The Kinescopes!

44:30 Athlete Bob Richards ( in Wheaties commercial) only passed away this year 2023 back in February...

I appreciate your mission to show old kinescopes! Thank you!

Those NBC Star Time promos all feature voiceovers by Mason Adams. In that promo for The Eleventh Hour with Ralph Bellamy (12:12), look for Sandy Kenyon and Jean Stapleton. At 24:27, Joanie Sommers sings her "Come Alive" jingle for Pepsi. At 35:09, the bass voice in the voiceover sounds like Thurl Ravenscroft.

Your post gets a little confusing - can you clarify again when the Uncle Ben's Rice and Norelco Beauty Sachet commercials are from? Thanks!

[@fromthesidelines]

Uncle Ben's Rice {#40} was seen in 1957. The Norelco ad {#41} was seen in 1964.

Re. #10: At the time, Muriel Cigars was owned by Consolidated Cigar Corp. - for whose other product, Dutch Masters, her late husband Ernie Kovacs produced ads as aired on his 1961-62 ABC specials, and before that, his 1959-60 "game" show "Take A Good Look." (Ironically, he never smoked that brand off-camera, he was a devout Havana smoker; the only time he smoked Dutch Masters was for the scenes where he was at the control booth.)
