Old Australian Commercials from the 1960s & 1970s [Re-upload]

This is a re-upload as my previous video was done back before I had the capture device that I am currently using, and was very choppy. Technically this should be better quality.
All of these commercials were aired in Australia during the 1960s and 1970s. I have a unique VHS that contains all of these. Originally I had broken them up into segments; however, I have now uploaded them all together as they are shown on the VHS.

Thanks for taking the effort to post these old Aus commercials - I remember most of them. An important window to the past. .

[@albertlanger2339]

So many memories. Thank you for the time to collect and collate

[@FeatherGlow1]

Love watching these old ads.

These are originally from McCann-Erickson show reels. I copied all of these and many many more from about 15 High Band UMatic (60 min) tapes back in the mid 1980s when I did an internship in the Melbourne office. The quality was a 100 times better. I probably still have the tapes somewhere. The originals were stored in caves somewhere in the Blue Mountains west of Sydney where it was cool, but just tosted anywhere.

[@burntoutelectronics]

I'm curious if you ever found those tapes

McCann-Erickson Melbourne office you say, mid 80s . . . Did you know John May. Brilliant young man. He walked into the office with some of his ideas when he finished Physics at Melbourne uni. They took him on. His first ad used was black and white image of a hand on the dynamite plunger in silhouette. Then the biscuit ad, I think arnotts assorted cream, where a saxophone was blowing out biscuits along with notes. He went on to new York. Did Levi . . Guy doing washing, music "respect", and Levi Legend, of gold miners I think. Coca Cola, kylie ordering pizza. Any of that ring a bell? He turned 20 in '84. I'd love to hear from you

There was an ad for sugar: "Coffee sugar, caster sugar, raw, cubed, and brown, All these different sugars make the world go 'round."

[@youngbess1]

Goodness me! Does this bring back memories!

I Still drive a manuel love them, now im 61 and learnt how to drive at 11

[@adrianr9307]

You learnt how to drive your boyfriend to the drive in aged 11 :-)

[@jimmyohara2601]

Manual (& Road Ranger) transmission pointless ( I can & do drive trucks with both types), as Automatic is all that is required. 😁👍

[@DarkRyeOrganic_Au]

Wow, Matt Lucas has barely aged at all since the '70s [2:30] !

[@AussieKim42]

[@Deejaay83urj38]

Tullamarine Airport debuting in an ad!

[@rbalse]

I am looking for a late 50s/early 60s commercial for Tek toothbrushes featuring three Old English Sheepdogs. Can you help?...many thanks

[@MARILYNNEWTONGIBB]

WILL TRY TO FIND IT FOR YOU OK

[@doctorbohr1585]

2:16 I think that was a little overdone, personally 😂

[@wertherquartett]

Do you have the old Tosca ad? ("Where's George?" "Gone for a Tosca!" And when he returns: "I bought two, I can't resist them.")

[@petersmith9785]

Four on the floor 😂🤣😀🇦🇺

[@doctorbohr1585]

Better than three on the tree!!

This is my home but I wasn't born yet :( Our country has become a nightmare in every possible way.

[@isurrendersparkle6467]

Everything used to be cheap back then

[@Deathmastertx]

Inflation, mate. Prices went up but so did wages. Real income, so stripping out inflation, is about double today what it was in 1970.

[@marilynnewtongibb7670]

THAT IS FOR SURE IN AUSTRALIA AND CANADA AS WELL LIKE FOOD AND CARS

[@marilynnewtongibb7670]

@@Deathmastertx I KNOW PRICES HERE IN TORONTO SUPERMARKETS LIKE FOOD WENT UP LAST YEAR AND THE PRICES TODAY HAVE TO COME DOWN SOMETIME LIKE NOW I LOVE COFFEE BUT NOT THE PRICE

[@christopherbarnes2465]

Looking for the ripper ice cream advert and daddy D’s. Any chance you know them?

[@MARILYNNEWTONGIBB]

I WILL TRY FIND THESE FOR YOU OK

[@turbotiger82]

Funny to think that most of the Western world was already watching TV in this era in Colour.

[@jonglewongle3438]

Color TV by the 1960s in the UK and USA but not until 1975 in Australia. But my mother was saying in 1974 that much of America was still on b / w televisions because of socio-economic reasons. Then I casually took that up, in class, with one of a couple of expatriate American teachers and he said that what I had heard was since negotiated and it was basically color all the way in the USA.

[@OofusTwillip]

The Toyota commercial inadvertently (and incorrectly) says that Toyotas are such shite that you'll need to replace them every 3 years. My dad and brother have gotten 15+ years out of their Toyotas.

[@reverseuniverse2559]

I think they were in acid in the 60s with the cigarette commercials imagine if smoking commercials were still legal, no I can’t I’m glad there’s not but imagine a voice like Franks tiles or Harvey Norman lol

[@neilmcginn2074]

Great ads. But it makes me sad to hear the Aussie accents back then deteriorate to the citified wishi-washi-ness that we hear today ...

[@MARILYNNEWTONGIBB]

THESE ADS ARE ALMOST THE SAME IN CANADA AND IN AUSTRALIA AS WELL THE SAME COOKIES WITH TEA AND COFFEE AND HOW MUCH WERE THEY THEN? GOOD QUESTIONS WHAT ARE THE ANSWERS?
