is gellin' compellin' or as dense as a melon?

Danemodsandy...the "Gellin'" spots have gotten worse...the wonderful dudes at Dr. Scholl's has come out with a new double-gel insoles so now you're not just "gellin'," you're "gellin'-gellin'."

And the Astelins are setting a bad example for the non-smoking crowd...one spot shows one of the singers chompin' on a big black cigar to show how this new medication is effective against smoke...hey, I smoke cigars myself, but I don't want to force them on anyone else...
 
Ajax spots...

back with a couple Ajax spots from youtube...

first, wouldn't you like these little dudes cleaning your kitchen?

 
another Ajax spot...

and this cool "wipe out kitchen sinks" ad from 1967 (note the Mustang with "Let Ajax Do It!" on the deck lid and the Ajax cans tied to the back bumper)...

...and notice too that the Ajax formula this year contained not only chlorine bleach but also bromine bleach...

 
I remember the Ajax commercials from the 50's with the tune that was used. I was in kindergarten in 1954 and went to school and sang the Ajax commercial for my class and teacher (Mrs. Hammond). Instead of saying "use Ajax the foaming cleanser etc. I sang use Kotex the foaming cleanser.
My mom received a call from Mrs. Hammond and then I got a good talking to. I had no clue that what I sang was inappropriate. Welcome to kindergarten. (Mom received another call from Mrs. Hammond about a song that I sang (to the tune of "Dixie") that was highly inappropriate, even for those times).Gee, I wonder what Mrs. Hammond was thinking about what went on at our house? lol Gary

"Climax!" of the Plymouth mystery...

Hey, irishwashguy and badata...

Chrysler Corporation sponsored two shows in the mid-'50s...three out of every four weeks, it was a dramatic anthology called "Climax!" (hence the little witty pun above)...and the fourth week was devoted to a show called "Shower of Stars," which specialized in musical comedies.

The co-hosts were William Lundigan (the dude talkin' about the Plymouth in this spot) and Mary Costa. I remember it chiefly for Art Gilmore's voice-overs at the start of the show: "PLYMOUTH! DODGE! DeSOTO! CHRYSLER! and IMPERIAL! The five great cars of the FORWARD LOOK...from CHRYSLER CORPORATION!" (Good trick for a car nut who was only five years old at the time.)

Art Gilmore, you may recall, was the voice-over announcer for "Highway Patrol" and "The Red Skelton Hour" for many, many years.
