    As I recall, Armour hot dog commercials fell victim to political correctness. "What kind of kids love Armour hot dogs? Fat kids, skinny kids, kids who climb on rocks, tough kids, sissy kids, even kids with chicken pox love hot dogs, Armour hot dogs, the dogs kids live to bite."

    You're absolutely right, Alan! I stand corrected.

    Ahhh... the old commercial jingles are reminding me of old Saturday morning cartoons. Can anyone name this show:

    When you find yourself in danger
    When you're threatened by a stranger
    When you think that you will take a lickin'
    There is someone who will come
    And hurry up to rescue you (I think this is the line!!! LOL)

    Maybe I've said this earlier in the thread.............its been so long ago and so many pages ago..

    "Brusha Brusha Brusha, New Ipana toothpaste". I think a beaver was singing it.

    Wasn't it Beaman's pepsodent gum that put you in the Gardol Shield??

    This is so great! LOVE this thread to the nth! Thank you, thank you, thank you (EVERYONE), for making this thread the best thread ever!

    One of my favourite retro things is jingles and slogans. On page 14 (this thread) I posted a Youtube video for L'EGGS, Pantyhose, and still, after all these years, I fancy the jingle.

    "S-h-e-'s... g-o-t... l-e-g-s... our L'eggs, fit your legs, they hug you- they hold you, they never let you go."

    Digging up more "old"...



    Circa, late 80's, baby/toddler training pants. Plain plastic/vinyl outside, terry-cloth inside. My sister passed a bunch of these down to me when our first was born (1992). Best rubber pants ever! The all-in-one style eliminated the need for separate waffle-knit training pants/soakers w/plain rubber pants over.
