Chad,
I might be wrong on this but I don't beleive anyone still airs those WB cartoons in the unaltered form due to parent groups saying those cartoons contain harmful violence. Jeff |

Are you sure it was not Ashcroft?

The Prelinger Archive at www.archive.org has an incredible color film called "American Look"
"The definitive Populuxe film on 1950s automotive, industrial, interior and architectural design" It's available for free download in three parts if you have a high speed connection. http://www.archive.org/movies/detail...ctionid=08389a http://www.archive.org/movies/detail...ctionid=08389b http://www.archive.org/movies/detail...ctionid=08389c It can be burned to a Video CD and played through a DVD player. I would be willing to make a couple copies and send them out for us to pass around and share if anyones interested. Prelinger endorses this type of non commercial use so pirating is not an issue here |

I'm not sure on the timeline, but it seems to me some Ed Sullivan would be perfect. You know, Topo Gigio, the guys spinning the plates on the sticks, the animal acts, etc, the whole shebang!
Like in "Bye-bye, Birdie" when Paul Lynde sings "Ed Sullll-i-vannnnnnnnn" with the choir.

Ed Sullivan! Yeah! Why didn't I think of that?
Also Andy Williams or Perry Como Christmas specials. Or maybe an original commercial for the particular set you're watching ! As for the Prelinger Archives, go, go, go! They've got so much interesting stuff it boggles the mind including...an original commercial for an RCA color set with remote control! Only problem with the site is that downloads are often very slow. Still, many things are well worth the wait.

How about Bonanza or any major parade or sporting event? And for those later 70's sets, Sonny and Cher!

How about the Flintstones? Remember cigarette commercials? Though the below is a B&W set, I wanted to show Barney Rubble hawking Winston Cigarettes!

If Winston marketed a chocolate flavored cigarette then they could combine advertising forces with Coco Puff cereal!
Sorry, couldn't resist! Anthony |

Winston/Flintstones
That's something you don't see every day... Barney Rubble promoting smoking!
Hmmm.... i wonder what Shaggy and Scooby might promote? Shaggy was a late-60's teenager... I'm sure he was up to no good behind the scenes!

Great screen shots. Oddly enough, the cartoon shots reminded me that when I was a kid in the sixties that I was not unhappy watching those cartoons in B&W. I though the colors were too overdone, and that the B&W TV "toned them down" to a reasonable level... Mostly the recent production (at the time) cartoons were too colorful for my tastes.
I also remember that "Astro Boy" (a Japanese import dubbed into English) was too jumpy (seems that they updated the motion about once every 1/4 second). WB cartoons had much smoother animation and you didn't see the same scenery passing by like you did in the Flintstones. Years later a Japanese co-worker was suprized to hear that I knew about Astro Boy. Was a big thing there. |
