OLD COMMERCIALS #3 (The 60's)

[@pauldzim]

"Mother please! I'd rather do it myself!" That was a classic for many years.

[@MrDiechi01]

A fine collection old commercials. Bravo!

[@citizen1163]

Woman in 'Top Brass' ad was assistant in 60s tv show 'Get Smart'....sooo young!

[@Cyberpunkninja92]

"Agent 99" was played by Barbara Feldon and yes, that is her.

[@Marcel_Audubon]

Barbara Feldon - so pretty and a very distinctive voice

[@deedeegreen8338]

" Too bad that youth is wasted on the young". This quote has been attributed to at least three people but all I care about is the message is the same. We have no clue what's happening until we are adults who are then able to think and function on our own. What I wouldn't give to go back in time, for just a day and relive some of those easy, breezy days of the '60's.

[@HandleDisliker]

You don't happen to have advice for a 19 year old, do you? (I guess you could say I've been trying to collect as much sagely advice as possible)

[@rodolfoayalajr.8589]

Great memories.

[@hecate55]

I'd love for a product to be called "Cock of the Walk" today!

[@manthasagittarius1]

"Mother, PLEASE! I'd rather do it myself!!"

[@alexander2685]

That big lady is soo lucky.

[@cowboykody6775]

Slinky? Reminds me of the suspension on a Honda CVCC

[@Jdwify]

Id be a tiger with Barbara Feldon. She would later play Agent 99 in the spy series Get Smart.

[@Marcel_Audubon]

we had a '62 Lark

[@pattibrooks1907]

I love the old commercials not after the 90s though !

[@Dizzz127]

Aww slinky

[@GwynethSleuth]

The Anacin commercial got me in trouble...when I suggested it to my Mom. (oops)

[@traod8]

Are those the Borden twins dancing in the Cock of the Walk commercial?

[@JamesRomero-ym4rp]

Do they make cigarette commercials anymore. ?Seems like i haven't seen one in years.

[@Jdwify]

Cigarette commercials were banned in the early 1970's.

[@paullatimer1639]

When you think about it it's pretty cheap to give a coiled wire to a child and call it a toy. Besides, I could never get my slinky to go down the stairs.

[@debilionetti3211]

The Slinky didn't do down steps for me either! (And none of the other ways of playing with this thing were going to interest kids for more than a minute or so!) You're right; it wasn't much of a toy.

[@michaelcarlson1428]

Barbara Feldon?

[@GwynethSleuth]

Yes, Agent 99 at her most sensuous----or is it, "sensual"?

[@eighthoneknows8273]

Ricky Ricardo advertising cigarettes dies of lung cancer 🤔😬

[@dalemulholland9114]

Better than rotting your brain with pot..or poisoning oneself with untested drugs..

[@negativeindustrial]

If you think “Cock Of The Walk” sounds funny we have an instant soup sold near me that’s called “Cock Flavored Soup” - look it up if you’d like, it’s funny AF

[@Dizzz127]

I WANT MY LARK NOW!!!!!

[@Julian9ehp]

Sorry to backbite, but the car ad was from 1958, not the 60's.

[@RadioForYahweh]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😭

[@thegoldendog7991]

Wow, this comment is 14 years old!

[@Femaiden]

I'm here because of Ren and Stimpy, wanted to see what real commercials looked like. . and the Slinky one, which inspired Log. . Those women from the first one looked like Will Sasso in drag. and i'm sorry, i shouldn't poke fun. it's not cool how they exploited people like that back then. . and Lucy shilling for Big Tobacco. . .it's too bad, because she was likely a big Influencer.

[@CoopyKat]

"Call for Phillip More-ee-us!!" -- wtf!? Is that kid stoned!??

[@Jdwify]

Desi Arnez was Cuban. He had a heavy Spanish accent.

[@txvoltaire]

1:40 Yuk! The chemicals used in this shirt never wash out!

[@RodgerMudd]

Lucy lived till 77 years old, Ricky die at 69 lung cancer.

[@RodgerMudd]

The car what bath would be great for street people. No wax please.

[@TruAnRksT]

Lucy was such a hack, I hate to watch her in anything today. And the cigarettes? Obviously she was a smoker already but everyone was back then. Consider why though! What made everyone decide to start smoking?

[@TruAnRksT]

My younger sister smoked until her husband found her dead from a massive heart attack in bed at the age of 40.

[@roysterfutrell8889]

My grandfather smoked Lucky Strike non filters till he died at 87.

[@michaelpalmieri7335]

@@TruAnRksT My older sister started smoking when she was in her teens, I think, and she kept right on smoking (sometimes as many as two packs a day), until she was diagnosed with lung cancer around the year 2014. She started getting chemotherapy and radiation treatments, but they didn't do much good, and to make matters worse, she kept on smoking, even though her doctor told her she had to give it up. At the same time, she started getting strokes that messed up her mind and made her act irrational at times. Then one morning, she fell down in the bathroom and broke her hip, and had to be taken to the hospital. A surgeon wanted to operate on her, but he was afraid it might cause her cancer to spread to the rest of her body and kill her instantly. By this time, she was too far gone with her disease, so they decided to move her to a hospice care unit and "let nature take its course," and so they did. My sister was in the unit for about fifteen days, until she finally passed away on 07/26/2015.

[@markschroeder2578]

Easy...celebrities made it look like the chic thing to do. The addictive chemicals in cigarettes took over from there. In a nutshell, that's how.

[@patriciaoreilly8907]

​@@michaelpalmieri7335 what are you on about? Enjoy the commercials . 😊

[@joecomer8275]

Of course if Lucy and Desi were in a commercial together, these aren't entirely 60's commercials, are they?? Also, it's so wrong to have a cigarette commercial follow a commercial about a child's toy
