I remember these commercials in the seventy s they were still creative then they are now

Pete Seeger does the jingle in that Log Cabin syrup commercial.

I was blown away by the Purina commercial. They do not follow that statement today. Also Ivory soap floats.

Starting at 6:36, that is the first of several ERA ads with the late, great character actress Mary Wickes, still on a roll at the time she made these. She is also joined by some other familiar faces. Glad you are keeping the ad agency names in some cases. From big screen movies to TV shows like MATCH GAME, several Lucille Ball shows and KOLCHAK: THE NIGHT STALKER, she was in top form to the end! At 23:26, that Franklin Cover from THE JEFFERSONS (Tom Willis himself) in a much older soap ad, shot on film versus the analog videotape of his hit show. Thanks for another great ad set!

I now desire to purchase powdered laundry detergent.

I guess there used to be different detergents for different temperatures of water. 🤔 I remember ads for "all temperature" detergent, but I never thought about why it existed.

I would watch documentaries on each of the products/companies that failed in these ads.

Log Cabin Syrup with 1% maple syrup.

I love the look of these commercials, the film look, the blobs, scratches, damage, pops and bleeps, the film leaders with names of probably long-gone advertising agencies. And the music. For the Cold Water All advert at 25:30 uses a piece called Silk Organdie from a De Wolfe LP called Silk Organdie (1967). I'd like a bit of what they were on when they made that Speak Easy ad at 28:17! Keep 'em coming!

The ivory commercial reminds me of the 1975 SNL sketch with Jane Curtin with the brainwashing soap

Mary Wickes is "Opal" in the 1974 Era commercials.

I remember the Era detergent, Fruit Stripe gum and Raid bug spray commercials most clearly.

Jeez- now I understand why they're called "Soap Opera's". Lots of soap commercials.

Actually, you're right, except that the term "soap opera" didn't originate on TV, but during the early days of radio, for it was on that medium that the daytime drama serials first started. They included such famous programs as "The Romance Of Helen Trent," "Lorenzo Jones," "Mary Noble, Backstage Wife," "Just Plain Bill," "Ma Perkins," "One Man's Family," "Our Gal Sunday," and a few that made the transition to television, like "The Guiding Light." Anyway, when these serials started around the 1930s, the majority of them were sponsored by soap companies, and were thus called "soap operas."

Procter & Gamble, makers of Era, Ivory, and Cheer (among many other brands), also produced many long-running TV soaps like As the World Turns, The Edge of Night, and Search for Tomorrow, as well as some of the radio soaps michaelpalmieri mentions below.

Anyone else getting melancholic feelings for a time they never lived in through the commercials of that time? Someone much smarter than me probably has something to say about that.

Great collection!

One of the Cascade commercials has Chris Pines Dad from CHiPS in it.

Libby's Twin Meal Deal - Voiceover by Paul Frees.

This was a cool compilation of commercials, Periscope Film! I hope you have more Jack In The Box Restaurant commercials, but I'm especially interested in any animated ones. The characters were voiced by Paul Winchell, voice of Tigger, and that's what makes them so interesting to me.

I noticed in the Cascade ad with actor Robert Pine that the kitchen set used looks to be the one on the Partridge Family. The wife's friend Ruth is played by soap actress Pamela Toll.

Love these 1970s commercials. More, please. 😊

Here's the issue: Tens of thousands of films similar to this one have been lost forever -- destroyed -- and many others are at risk. Our company preserves these precious bits of history one film at a time. How do we afford to do that? By selling them as stock footage to documentary filmmakers and broadcasters. If we did not have a counter, we could not afford to post films like these online, and no films would be preserved. It's that simple. So we ask you to bear with the watermark and timecodes. In the past we tried many different systems including placing our timer at the bottom corner of our videos. What happened? Unscrupulous KZread users downloaded our vids, blew them up so the timer was not visible, and re-posted them as their own content! We had to use content control to have the videos removed and shut down these channels. It's hard enough work preserving these films and posting them, without having to spend precious time dealing with policing thievery -- and not what we devoted ourselves to do. Love our channel and want to support what we do? You can help us save and post more orphaned films!

02:30 is that Pete Seger singing? Sure sounds like him. I didn't think he would stoop low to doing commercials however...

@perrybarton

Жыл бұрын

I had the same thought. Based on what I found on Google, I think this might be Oscar Brand, another folk singer of Seeger’s era, who actually wrote music for commercials for Log Cabin Syrup, Cheerios, and apparently other products as well. But he and Pete were friends, so it COULD be Pete singing this one. 🤔

Log Cabin is “syrup” like almond milk is “milk” and Beyond Meat is “meat”. Never underestimate Madison Avenue‘s contempt for our intelligence.

27:53- "If you could put Taryeton's charcoal filter on YOUR cigarette, you'd have a better cigarette. But not as good as a Tareyton." (1968)

I like the Raid commercial🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Procter & Gamble (Era, Cheer, Cascade, etc.) had effective formulas for commercials, using either recurring characters (like Mrs. Olsen for Folger's Coffee or Mr. Whipple for Charmin) or similar scripts with the same talking points but different casts for the same product (the "three temperatures/one detergent" theme for Cheer). I don't think the Era ladies lasted too long, though.

@3:34 I'm pretty sure this is Ruth Gordon in this Joy commercial. Little did we know we'd later see her complaining about an orangutan eating her Oreos. Some of you would know her as Ma from Every Which Way But Loose and Any Which Way You Can movies.
