DVD Reviews of Cartoon Commercials!

DVD Review: Great collection!
Summary: 5 Stars

Beyond just being a cool pop culture relic (which it is), this is a very solid collection of graphic animation. Fred & Barney and Rocky & Bullwinkle were just never animated this fully on their shows. It's great to see these designs getting full rotations. And the Country Cornflakes commercial is great psychedelicized Americana!

DVD Review: Vintage Commercials
Summary: 5 Stars

If your into this type of pop culture, this is well worth the cost. Most of the picture quality is very good or better. I have been buying commercial collections since the 90's. All those were on VHS and most were of questionable quality. This DVD I can highly recommend.

DVD Review: Discription of this great DVD (deleted somehow by Amazon!)
Summary: 5 Stars

Our new distributor somehow deleted my product discription... so until it is restored, here is the discription:

DVD Review: Nice collection where ANIMATION is the focus!
Summary: 5 Stars

I don't leave a review for 'everything' I buy, but only for the really nice items -- and THIS DVD is one of the NICE ones!

This collection of animated commercials is NOT just "classic commercials". No, it IS a nice collection that presents many, many animated ads mostly for the representation of how animation was used in tv commercials during the 1950s, 60s & 70s.

Animation is the focus here with complete commercials -- one after another. It is not a "documentary", but by activating the "subtitles" on your DVD player, you get a description [on most of them] on your screen with production info.

After looking through many different old "animation" books showing stills from feature films to commercials, for us animation fans it's nice to [finally] get these.

The quality varies from ad to ad, but considering how old most of these are it's nice to know they still exist!

A VERY NICE collection, and with the cover reading "Volume 1" I look forward to Volume 2!

DVD Review: Of interest....
Summary: 4 Stars

An interesting collection of stuff, some of it kind of junky and antiquidated, but it shows how early TV commercials were and how they sold products.

It does, however have the Flintstones Winston cigarette commercial, all 60 seconds of it, where Fred and Barney sneak behind the house and light up a couple while Wilma and Betty do housework. Shocking, pitching tobacco to children? Don't they still do it?

Ah---memories.....
