And one i just thought of- at the end of Kentucky Fried Chicken commercials, with a picture of Colonel Sanders on the screen, the voice over was "if you want Kentucky Fried Chicken, you;ll have to visit me". I think it was the last line of a short jingle - but i never paid attention since i hated KFC or anything with chicken skin attached to it...
Catchphrases and . . .
Catchy tunes that made the hit parade!
In the case of the Benson & Hedges campaign (see further up), the ad's music spawned a top-40 hit single. Sometimes it was the other way around.
Here's Alka Seltzer borrowing the 1966 release by The T-Bones, "No Matter What Shape."

As much as we all like these vintage catch phrases, I bet most if not all of us hate when yet another commercial interrupts a favorite TV program...
I remember once I had a Swiss housemate in college. He was, in general, a very annoying person. Everything was "better" in Switzerland. And he used to erupt in loud derisive laughter whenever a commercial would come on the TV. At the time I thought it was obnoxious, but he did have a point - especially since the Americans in the room would go into a kind of a trance during the commercial breaks, either letting their minds drift elsewhere or soaking in all the hidden persuaders... or both...
It's even weirder when one considers that the National Socialists of 30's Germany were the ones who perfected such propaganda techniques, which were picked up by Madison Avenue after the war and put to vast commercial use.
The infamous Anacin TV commercials of the 50's were a classic example: you know, the one with a hammer incessantly hitting an anvil, to portray headache pain. Then came on the strident announcer, pushing Anacin as the Final Solution for one's cerebral angst.
Similarly, the Nazis would use strident radio and newspaper messages to grab the attention of a likely bone-tired populace. Of course the application of these techniques in modern America is not at all as evil as what the Nazis used the to effect, but the techniques have been well learned by commercial and political America and our society will never be quite the same.

Final Net
Stan, Clairol probably used this for all three of their lighteners. Lady Clairol Whipped Creme was the first coming out in about 1950, you had to actually whip it with an egg beater after adding the peroxide and boosters. Then came Lady Clairol Instant Whip Creme Hair Lightner in about 1957, this got thick just by mixing wth peroxide and shaking or stirring. Then in about 1960 Lady Clairol Ultra Blue Creme Hair Lightner hit the market with the "If I have but one life to live, let me live it as a blonde".
The other advertising slogan for Clairol Hair Lightners and Toners was, " The Lady Clairol blonde the silky shiny blonde, is it true blondes have more fun?"
I was a Cosmetologist from 1970 t0 1985, thats why I have this info in my box of trivia. LOL
