MOST UNUSUAL COMIC BOOK AD - GIRDLES & BRAS

2010-03-12T20:54:00Z

Can you believe it? These comic book ads offered a very unusual item for sale. Most comics have ads for cheap plastic or cardboard toys, or maybe an expensive toy which could be paid using time payments. The following ads, from two different issues of a Miss America comic book, offered ladies undergarments for sale.

I assume the demographic audience for the Miss America comic book were young ladies. If only the boys of that era, had known that the comic book rack contained drawings of ladies in their underwear. OOOH LA LA. The books were only INCHES away from their favorite war and western comic books. I'm betting that hormones would have been the deciding factor, and the circulation of the Miss America comic book line would have skyrocketed. Unfortunately for National Geographic, their circulation would have dropped, Miss America comic books only cost a dime.

PENTAGON WEAPONS PROCUREMENT DURING 1950'S & 1960'S SHOULD HAVE BEEN THROUGH COMIC BOOK ADS

2010-03-12T17:43:00Z

It is amazing the number of inexpensive weapon sytems, which were available to a typical comic book reader, during the late 50's & early 60's. You would think it might be dangerous to let little kids buy tanks, hand grenades & machine guns. I guess not. If Western Publishing, the parent company of Dell comic books, thought kids could handle a armored tank, or a hand held explosive device, who am I to disagree?

The Pentagon could of saved a fortune, if they had only bought a comic book every now, and then. The comic books were advertising tanks for under $5. I bet the Pentagon was paying a lot more for their tanks. They were getting ripped off.

Maybe they can try and get a refund.

Below are a few comic book ads, for the well equiped arsenal, of your typical10 year old, army reserve member

ANOTHER FANTASTIC ROY ROGERS CEREAL COMMERCIAL

CBS NEWSMAN MIKE WALLACE TV COMMERCIAL SPOKESMAN - JUST LIKE TED BAXTER

2010-03-10T21:49:00Z

During the early years of television, Mike Wallace was a celebrity spokesman for Fluffo shortening. When I saw the commercial, I immediately remembered a classic TV episode, from The Mary Tyler Moore Show.

The episode had Ted Baxter's agent renewing Ted's contract, with WJM News. Ted's agent wants to place a non-exclusive clause in the contract, in case Ted is offered movie or Broadway roles. Lou Grant, the news producer, is laughing at the idea that anybody would want Ted in a movie or play. Without thinking of all of the possible implications, that a non-exclusive clause would create, Lou agrees to the contract clause.

The episode is named Farmer Ted and the News, Ted becomes the spokesman for several different companies. One of the companies is a sausage company and he plays the role of Farmer Ted selling "Ma & Pa's Country Fresh Sausage," "The Sausage That Lets You Make A Pig Of Yourself." To make matters worse, the commercial is being aired on the same news program that Ted is hosting.

For your enjoyment, I have uploaded the Mike Wallace commercial. A Farmer Mike, in training. Below that commercial, I have included the MTM episode, Farmer Ted and the News. I hope you will enjoy these entertaining videos.

FRED FLINTSTONE ON VACATION IN VOLO, ILLINOIS

2010-03-10T19:31:00Z

I saw the Flintstone-mobile at the Volo Antique Auto museum & antique mall, located in Volo, Illinois. Fred Flintstone has to be on vacation in Chicagoland, it is the only possible answer. I hope the animated Betty Rubble is with him. The animated Betty was and is HOT!!! The live-action Betty Rubble was shall I say.......... Let me say this, the live-action Betty Rubble was played by Rosie O'Donnell, enough said.

Fred being on vacation isn't the only possible answer. The live-action Flintstone movie, starring Fred Flintstone reincarnated into the body of John Goodman, had a George Barris created vehicle as the "TRUE" star of the movie. The Flintstone-mobile is residing at the Volo Antique auto museum, Volo, Illinois. You can even have your picture taken while sitting in the car. YABBA DABBA DO.

Here are a few pictures of the infamous FLINTSTONE -MOBILE

TV TOY MEMORIES has a few Flintstone toys from the movie, such as:

1) A cuddly Fred Flinstone doll which actually looks like John Goodman
2) A Flintstone movie vehicle model car
3) Autographed Betty Rubble action figure, signed by Rosie O'Donnell (in-person)

KIRK & SPOCK - A "SPECIAL RELATIONSHIP" VERY FUNNY PARODY FILM

1950'S MR & MRS POTATO HEAD COMMERCIAL - COULD IT BE DAN QUAYLE & SARAH PALIN?

Could it be? Did the infamous incorrect speller of the word "POTATO", ex-Vice President Dan Quayle & ex-Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin make a 1950's TV commercial together. Maybe it is my WILD imaginative NIGHTMARE and It was just a dream. You be the judge.

FUNNY & WEIRD CLAMPETT FAMILY - BEVERLY HILLS, CALIFORNIA 90210

2010-03-07T20:41:00Z

I love fish-out-of-water stories and "The Beverly Hillbillies" is a PRIME EXAMPLE. Jed Clampett was the patriarch of the family. He was a poor mountaineer, who barely kept his family fed.

If Jed was such a crack shot who supposedly could shoot a mosquito between the eyes, from 1,000 feet, why did he have problems keeping his family fed? It was obvious that Jed's bullet was shot into the ground, because the oil well was "drilled" by the bullet. Why was he shooting into the ground, prior to the oil oozing up? Didn't he know that the best way to hunt for food was not to shoot the bullet into the ground? I guess he could have been hunting for a groundhog and it just happened to be underground. Sounds like a Dick Cheney excuse.

I like to go off on tangents and this is one of those times. I think Jed and "The Dick" would have been best buddies. "The Dick" goes hunting at a fancy-smancy preserve using caged birds which are then released, just after the "hunter" is told where to point their gun. I think Jed also had a problem knowing where to point his gun.

Well, Jed comes running into the cabin & tells the family that an oil company wants to buy their oil, with a new kind of money. He has heard of a silver dollar, but he has never heard of a "million dollar."

No, Jed, you are being paid a MILLION DOLLARS.

Tangent time, again. I've never experienced an oil company giving me money, as opposed to TAKING MONEY from me. If that happened to me, it would probably make me feel all tingly inside. Imagine having an oil company executive "kissing your butt," as opposed to doing something else with it.

The money is flowing in for the Clampetts. Milburn Drysdale, a Beverly Hills banker, is keeping all of Jed's money "safe." Drysdale has bought a Beverly Hills mansion and will later buy investments for naive Jed.

Boy, sitcom bankers are soooo nice and soooooo honest. In real life, how long do you think it would take for Drysdale to start siphoning off some of the millions of dollars, which are coming in to Drysdale's bank without any oversight by Jed? In my humble opinion, 30 seconds.

The Clampett clan has moved into their fancy mansion, in CaliforneeeeeiiiiAAA & they need to get used to the city life. For example:

1) fancy dining table (aka pool table)
2) pot passers (pool cues)
3) music coming from the walls prior to somebody knocking at the door (aka door bell)
4) cement pond (aka swimming pool)
5) city-fied way of eating corn (aka eating Kellogg's Corn Flakes)

Kellogg's Corn Flakes, was the sponsor of "The Beverly Hillbillies." Kellogg's used the cast members as spokespeople for their product, while the actors were in character, as the Clampett family. The company also used print advertising, such as, full page newspaper ads with coupons & countertop displays with the character's likeness printed on it.

One of those countertop displays is available for sale, at TV TOY MEMORIES . You can view a picture of the display:

There was a specialty theme written for "The Beverly Hillbillies." It was used for the Kellogg's commercials

Come along and visit with the Clampett family,
As they learn the simple pleasures of the hills of Beverly.
That includes the sponsors,
sponsors of each week.
Brought to you from Kellogg's,

With a K-E-L-L-Oh-double good

FLINTSTONE & RUBBLE SMOKING COMMERCIAL & AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY PSA - BOTH SIDES OF THE FENCE

2010-03-06T21:42:00Z

The Flintstones was a Prime Time TV program aimed at adults and children. This program was on Prime Time and its sponsor was a cigarette manufacturer. In those days, cigarette makers were allowed to advertise on television, and the company chose to advertise on an animated TV show, which just happened to have an audience of millions of children. The commercial was supposedly aimed at adults - wink, wink.

The audience of the Lawrence Welk Show were adults also, but the cigarette manufacturers didn't sponsor that show. That demographic audience of The Lawrence Welk Show were set in their ways. The audience of The Flintstones were nearing the age of a beginning smoker. Make the viewer WANT & NEED the product by showing them smoking was supposedly cool. Repeat it every week and a lie becomes TRUTH. Don't believe me, ask Georgw W. Bush.

Below is a Flintstone cigarette commercial. After that is a PSA commercial that Fred Flintstone did for American Cancer Society. Feeling guilty, Fred?

LAUGH IN - THE SILLY & "IN" PLACE FOR BIG NAME CELEBRITIES

2010-03-05T22:21:00Z

Laugh-In was a 1960s iconic TV show, beloved by a young hip in-crowd. The jokes were tired and old but they were done fast-paced, along with flashing bright colors. All of the ingredients of the show were perfect for the short attention span, of the doobie smoker generation. The show had a young audience and if a "older" celebrity wanted to promote themselves, to a young demographic audience, they needed to appear on the show.

Big name stars like: John Wayne, Jack Benny, Johnny Carson, Peter Lawford, Zsa Zsa Gabor, Sammy Davis Jr., Carol Channing, James Garner, Vincent Price, Phyllis Diller, Bob Hope, Werner Klemperer (Col. Klink - Hogan's Heroes,) Otto Preminger, Liberace, Tommy Smothers, Dick Smothers, Bing Crosby, Debbie Reynolds, Cher, Sonny Bono, Rod Serling, Ed McMahon, Bob Newhart, Lorne Greene, Rock Hudson, Douglas Fairbanks Jr., Harry Belafonte, Jerry Lewis, Peter Sellers, Michael Caine, Nancy Sinatra, Janet Leigh, Carl Reiner, Joe Namath, Wilt Chamberlain, Milton Berle, Rosemary Clooney (George's aunt,) Cliff Robertson, Kirk Douglas, Jack Lemmon, Tennessee Ernie Ford, Engelbert Huperdink, Roger Moore, Peter Falk, Andy Griffith, Sugar Ray Robinson, Bill Russell, Edward G. Robinson, Bob Crane, Johnny Cash, Gene Hackman, Jean Stapleton, Ernest Borgnine, Gina Lollobrigida, & many, many more.

One name was purposedly ommitted from the list of celebrities. That name was 1968 Presidential candidate, Richard Milhous Nixon. His infamous line was: SOCK IT TO ME? A clip of Nixon's immortal line can be seen & heard below

A clip of BIG NAME Laugh-In guest stars, doing one-line closing goodbyes, can be seen below. Included is a classic poem read by John Wayne.

TV Toy Memories has a Laugh-In magazine, which has a cover photo that had been manipulated by the publisher. The cover photo has Richard Nixon's face pasted over the body of someone riding a tricycle. The magazine can be purchase at TV TOY MEMORIES

NIXON LAUGH-IN MAGAZINE

Laugh-In was on the air from 1967 - 1973 and they brought it back a second time, for the 1977 season. After Nixon had resigned, the producers of the second incarnation of Laugh-In asked "Tricky Dick" if he would come on again. They wanted him to say, "You can STOP socking it to me." He refused.

TV TOY MEMORIES also has an autographed Laugh-In magazine, with a cover photo of Arte Johnson, in the role of, Wolfgang the WWII German soldier. Very Interesting.......but STUPID!!!!!

CANADIAN MOUNTIE MICKEY ROONEY FOR RAINIER BEER - ADVERTISING POSTER

2010-03-04T20:24:00Z

At Mickey Rooney's age, he can do anything and say anything he wants, what are people going to do about it? Mickey is 90 years young. My experiences with meeting Mr. Rooney have been cold and lukewarm. At times he is incredibly standoffish and semi-rude, at other times, he will engage in a conversation and take a photo with his fans.

If I was in a mean mood today, I could say that it was his time of the month. I'm not in a mean mood and I won't say that.

Mickey has had many ups & downs in his life (who hasn't, especially in today's economy) and most of his problems were probably self-inflicted. One of his biggest problems was the incredible number of marriages, and don't forget about the divorces that go along with the marriages. His latest marriage to Jan Rooney seems to have calmed his demons. They have been married for 32 years, longer than his previous 7 marriages combined.

Seven divorces cost a lot of money. Mickey Rooney has acted in the movies for a longer period than any other actor. He has been in movie making business for 84 years. This year alone, he has two films in post-production and another filming. Granted the roles are small and are not time intensive, I mean, he is 90 years young.

Another method for Mickey to rake in the big bucks, was for him to make TV commercials. He was a spokesman for Rainier beer, in which he played a Canadian Mountie.

TV TOY MEMORIES has an autographed copy of a Rainier beer poster for sale. the poster has Mickey dressed in his red Mountie uniform. Below is a photo of the humorous poster.

MR. MAGOO DOING AN ANIMATED BEER COMMERCIAL - A FAVORITE AMONG CHILDREN SELLING BEER !!!

2010-03-03T19:58:00Z

Mr. Magoo was an extremely popular cartoon figure. Because of Political Correctness, it is rarely broadcast anymore. Leslie Nielsen, a silly man personified, played a live action version of Mr. Magoo. Other than the Leslie Nielsen movie, Mr Magoo hasn't been seen on TV for over a third of a century.

During the 1960s, Mr Magoo was a very popular cartoon character, beloved by children and adults. Jim Backus was the voice of the character. Jim also played another beloved character, during the same time period, he played the role of Mr. Howell on Gilligan's Island.

More than likely, the Stag Beer advertising agency came up with the "brilliant" idea of using a beloved animated character of children, to be a spokesman for beer. Call me crazy, I don't think children are a big demographic for the beer companies. WHAT WERE THEY THINKING?

TV TOY MEMORIES has three Mr. Magoo items for sale, on it's website. A vintage Mr. Magoo cartoon plastic Soaky bottle. A toy that was used during the children's bath time, or maybe, it was for the adult fan's bath time. With the topsy turvy advertising ideas that come from Madison Avenue, who knows?

MR MAGOO SOAKY TOY

TV TOY MEMORIES also has a paper doll punch-out set from 1964. The paper dolls were printed for a TV special, Mister Magoo's Christmas Carrol. It is a FILE COPY from the publisher's archive. Being from the archive, it is unused and in near mint condition. If you wish to purchase or receive more information, click on the link.

Last item in the TV TOY MEMORIES collection, an autographed movie poster from the live-action Mr. Magoo movie, starring Leslie Nielsen. It has been signed by Mr. Nielsen (in-person.)

For your enjoyment, I have uploaded one of the beer commercials, which I had mentioned earlier. This commercial is for educational purposes only. It is a historical piece of Americana.

REMEMBER WHEN THEME PARKS OFFERED SAFE & CLEAN FUN - BRITISH THEME PARK DESIRES STINKY URINE

2010-03-01T21:39:00Z

I haven't been to a theme park in 10 years. When I last visited an amusement park, I found it to be a safe & CLEAN experience. It seems like my nostalgic memories are definitely old fashioned and out of date. A British theme park offers something DIFFERENT for their patrons

Thorpe Park in Chertsey, England, has created a horror-film themed attraction, with a full sensory experience for their patrons. They offered a $750 cash prize for the stinkiest urine. The prize was supposedly given out February 26. I can only hope they didn't find the stinky urine that they were looking for. Maybe, I can save up & send it by Fed Ex. By the time it arrives, it should have a better aroma.

Laura Sinclair, entertainment manager for Thorpe Park will be making the final decision. I wonder if that was in her job description, or maybe, she is into that sort of thing. You never know.

In my humble opinion, Americans have far stinkier urine than the British. We are "UGLY AMERICANS," everything about us STINKS. If they want a TRUE horror experience, wait until Fed Ex makes a delivery, Monday morning.

JFK'S BEST POLITICAL TV COMMERCIAL - OR ANY OTHER CANDIDATE

2010-03-01T21:36:00Z

Everybody has heard of the infamous "Daisy" commercial that LBJ aired. You can view that commercial at the bottom of this blog entry. That commercial played on people's fears (the same theme that "W" & his Merry Band of Pranksters used during 2004) but I can't believe that the LBJ campaign ad changed the mind of any voter, since it was only aired once. The only way that the commercial could change a person's mind would be if the ad were played countless times, on many different TV channels, along with countless political "talking heads" commenting on it. Fear tactics in advertising need to be reinforced. Unfortunately for LBJ's campaign, the "talking head" circuit of cable TV shows and radio shows, with so-called experts, didn't exist at that time.

"W's" loyal "talking heads," or more likely, another bodily orifice, were the major reason why "W" was reelected. He didn't have any track record to run on. What do you do? LIE LIKE AN OLD DOG. Commercials made by the 527 groups attacked & attacked and attacked. The fact that they didn't have the truth behind them, that didn't stop them. TRUTH IS ONLY WHAT THE TALKING HEADS TELL THE PEOPLE.

Very reminiscent of what Hitler did, during the 30's. He told the people over and over that their problems were because of homosexuals and Jewish people. Eliminate the problems and everything will be rosy. Most people didn't see the collapse of their rights until it already happened. Take OTHER people's rights away, it won't effect me. Unfortunately, the next group to be targeted just might be yours. Too late for you.

I'm not a fan of LBJ or "W." When I say that, I don't consider the two of them as being an equally terrible President. It is a matter of degree. On a scale of 1 to 1,000, with 1000 equal to the worst, my dislike of LBJ would be around 300. "W" would be in the 970 range. I find it incredible that Republicans will defend "W." I have never heard a single Democrat ever defend LBJ's lies about the need to escalate the Viet Nam war. Democrats tend to glaze over LBJ's administration, kind of like the fans of Star Trek "forgetting" about the 5th Star Trek movie, the one that Shatner directed.

I like that, that is a good analogy.

The main focus of this blog entry is a JFK ad, which was done in an unusual way. Upbeat musical tempo & repeat, repeat, repeat & repeat the candidate's name. Kennedy's name was said over 30 times, and it was printed on the screen many more times. Major rule of advertising. REPEAT, REPEAT, REPEAT!!!! Even if the commercial comes off as annoying, just keep repeating it. People will remember the name. They won't be able to get it out of their heads. Decide for yourself. The first commercial is the JFK commercial & the second one is the infamous "Daisy" ad.

JFK POLITICAL ADVERTISEMENT REPEATING HIS NAME, OVER & OVER, 30 TIMES

LBJ POLITICAL AD "PEACE AND LITTLE GIRL" A.K.A. "THE DAISY" AD

The ad aired one time, on September 7, 1964. It was on the NBC Monday Night movie. As I stated before, I can't believe a commercial that was shown one time would have that big of an effect.

Republican Senator Goldwater's response to the ad:

"The homes of America are horrified and the intelligence of Americans is insulted by weird television advertising by which this administration threatens the end of the world unless all-wise Lyndon is given the nation for his very own."
(Indianapolis, IN 9/29/1964)

I like Senator Goldwater, he was one of the MAJOR reasons that NIXON resigned. He told Nixon that there was NO support for him, in the Senate. The only option would be to resign.

If we only had an honest & honorable Senate Republican during "W's" tenure, the world would be a lot better off.

FUNNY FACE DRINK MIX - DISCONTINUED BUT NOT FORGOTTEN

2010-02-28T19:59:00Z

Funny Face was a favorite among kids during the 1960's & early 70's. It was inexpensive & easy to make. It had great advertising with colorful characters. Unfortunately, two of the characters were Politically Incorrect. Injun Orange was supposed to be an American Indian, a.k.a. Native American. What does a Native American have to do with an orange flavored drink mix? I don't know. The other non-P.C. drink mix was Chinese Cherry, with an artist rendering of a perceived Oriental face.

In the infamous words of Sergeant Joe Friday (Dragnet TV character,) "names have been changed to protect the innocent." In other words, they dropped the Injun & Chinese names because they were getting to much flak.

Pillsbury was the manufacturer of Funny Face, they also had a few other flavors, such as:
Freckle Face Strawberry
Loud Mouth Lime
Rootin Tootin Rasberry
Goofy Grape

TV TOY MEMORIES has a full can of Goofy Grape drink mix (FOR COLLECTIBLE PURPOSES ONLY - NOT FOR CONSUMPTION) & a Goofy Grape figural cup. If you wish to purchase the items, you can click on the link for more information.

HOW DID THE LONE RANGER PAY FOR THE SILVER BULLETS - BY HAWKING CHEERIOS

2010-02-28T00:57:00Z

The Lone Ranger was a popular western TV program, during the early 1950's, starring Clayton Moore. A basic history behind the show; the main character was a Texas Ranger & was the lone survivor of a group of six Texas Rangers. The group had been hunting Butch Cavendish and The Hole In The Wall Gang, but were ambushed by the gang. A friendly Indian (that was before Political Correctness) by the name of Tonto, played by Jay Silverheels, saved the Ranger's life, when he came across the aftermath of the ambush.

Tonto was a childhood friend of Reid (last name of the Texas Ranger.) Reid decided to stop being a lawman and living with the law on his side and start to become a vigilante. Tonto would become the faithful companion of the unlawful vigilante masked man, a.k.a. THE LONE RANGER.

The description of the masked ex-Texas Ranger as a vigilante, was done with a wry sense of humor. Technically it may be true, but he was a GOOD VIGILANTE.

At the bottom of this blog entry, I have included the 1st episode of "The Lone Ranger" TV program, from September 16, 1949. Before that, I have included an entertaining commercial of the dashing masked man without his faithful companion. The commercial has TLR hawking Cheerios, along with a cool six-shooter dart gun.

TV TOY MEMORIES has a Lone Ranger cereal box (original - not a reproduction) with a Frontier Town, on the back of the box. If you would like to purchase this box, you may click on the TV TOY MEMORIES link, for more information.
