I bet it did, too! I like the jingle.

Three interesting car dealer commercials from the early 50's. It's interesting the points that were picked to appeal to potential buyers. I'd sure buy a used car from Earle! The middle commercial is kind of strange. It would be rather embarrassing if they fell off those cars. :lol:

This one is not so old, but it's stuck with me.

I like this short one for Liv-a Snaps. Do you remember this one?

Remember Muzzy? I actually didn't watch those tapes, but I do remember the commercial!
I did the math, and $28.17 for 6 months is $169.02. Divide that between 4 tapes, and that comes to an astounding $42.25 each! I know tapes were expensive back then, but it still shocks me when I hear it in dollars.

Hey, I remember these commercials as a kid! I always had no idea what the tapes actually were other than cartoons for language learning.

This is my first time hearing of Muzzy. :) That price does sound high for videocassettes, doesn't it?
