Things you don't see advertised on TV anymore (from the '50s, '60s)

[Obliviax]

Benson and Hedges

Just a silly millimeter longer

You've come a long way baby.

It's not how long you make it is how make it long.

 

[nits74]

Ipana toothpaste.

Remember Stripe toothpaste?

 

[nits74]

Mabel, Black Label

Remember it well. Husband is out raking leaves and calls his wife Mabel for a beer. She happily brings it out wearing an apron. How do you think that one would play today?

 

[Thorndike2012]

How about The Tidy Bowl Man?

 

[Thorndike2012]

And where's the Frito Bandito these days? Stuck at the border?

Schafer is the one beer to have, when you’re having more than one.

Because it’s like water and you won’t get drunk.

 

[Art]

You'll wonder where the yellow went when you brush your teeth with Pepsodent

 

[artsandletters]

Ballantine beer

“Ballantine Beer, the beer with the ten minute head. Have you timed it lately?”

Imagine Marv Albert doing this short radio spot during Knicks games.

Now make the ‘ten minute head’ jokes.

I miss seeing dogs chasing the chuckwagon through the kitchen

Dippity Do
Bardahl did it again
Ovaltine

 

[joeparules]

And where's the Frito Bandito these days? Stuck at the border?

Definitely would be shot down by the PC-police these days. Gotta love Mel Blanc and his Speedy Gonzalez voice!

 

[Nitwit]

Thalidomide*

I don’t remember them advertising it but interestingly newer generations of thalidomide - first Revlimid and now Pomolidimid have proven very effective in the suppression of multiple myeloma and helped patients survive the disease for many years.

 

[WeARE]

Ginsu knives. Cut through a beer can and then slice a tomato.

Flavor straws, Tang, coon kin caps (I am really dating myself - not that there's anything wrong with that.)

“Ancient Chinese Secret” probably wouldn’t make it in today’s climate.

 

[Nitt1300]

DeSotos

 

[Bylion]

Gelette Blue Blades. To look sharpe everytime you shave. But those were the days when athletes shaved

 

[CoastFan]

Grandpa Hugh, is 92...
And twice a day he's able...
to give the cry that keeps him young and spry...
Yoo-hoo! Mable! Black Label!
There goes that call again...
For Carling Black Label Beer!
