ONE HOUR of Vintage Commercials from the 70s IN 4K | Part 1 

I love having this in the background on my tv and pretending I’m in the 70s. It’s so cozy and comforting especially with how muffled and hushed the audio sounds back then.

If I could relive one decade in my life, it would be the 70s.

I’m 62 years old and I remember all of those commercials thanks for the memories!!!

Us Gen Xers are happily reminiscing about these times just like our grandparents did when we were kids. Getting old SUCKS 😊

boy you just don't know how much this brings back memories of the seventies when I was a kid

Does anybody remember a commercial with an old lady driving a model T car crashing through a barn from one end then coming out the other chasing someone and haystacks flying everywhere? Its a memory stuck for years😢

I'm 59 and I remember all of these commercials especially the food and beverage commercials down here in Oklahoma during the 70's and they really bring back memories of the 70's today especially the food and beverage ones thanks.🇺🇲📺📺🇺🇲

It's nice to listen to commercials again that don't blast your ears off your head. The decibal level of many of today's commercials sounds like a heavy metal concert.

Notice that there aren’t constant prescription drug ads. I know a Swede who came here for the first time and he found it odd that our commercials have so many of them. He said that if you’re interested in medicine shouldn’t you ask your doctor for it? True.

Oh wow thanks for posting these old commercials so cool ❤love the oldies 60s and 70s are people were much easier going and calmer no stress like today and they dressed up to go out lol thanks for the memories❤so relaxing watching the whole video lol. Keep them coming …

I never thought I'd be sitting here watching adds for over an hour😅

Why do i feel so nostalgic for a time I wasn't even alive for?

Awesome 1970's vintage commercials!!

This was my entire childhood. The Ultimate Bubble, Bubblishous!! OMG.

I was a teenager in the 70s and I remember most of these commercials.

Love these commercials! The 70s were the best times... if only i could go back and stay in that era but it goes against the universe 😢

It’s fun seeing all the soon to be celebrities that started their career in commercials. So far I see Kim Basinger and Steve Guttenberg lol

Thank you Classic Commercial Archives for allowing me to "time travel".

It is 2023, and it’s so crazy to see old commercials of companies and restaurants still running to this day, or those that ran it’s course however peaking during this era. It’s fascinating, really!

People were just so much better back then, watching these and then looking at our society today is really sad

Finally a presentation about the 70's that's not a put down to the decade. I get so sick of the 70's bashing!

This is very, very hard to watch. Life was SO so good in the 1970s in America. Everything was better. People were better. What happened? Dang man. I wish I had a time machine, big time. I would never come back.

When you’re stoned out of your mind and you’re done swimming, lay on a rock with your purse and don’t forget to put a tiny Coke in your purse before laying on the rock after swimming while stoned. Thank you so much for posting these great commercials. That had to have been a serious effort to seamlessly present them in such excellent video and audio quality.

That nbc Saturday night at the movies theme song has stuck in my head since childhood. I just didn't know what it was! Reunite on ice! Love it! These commercials are making me miss my parents so much.

I miss the good old days . These are awesome thank you for the memories!!!!

Best time of my life

You wouldnt be able to call Campbell soup the manhandler in this day and age they would be protesting outside the company's headquarters. Our world has gone stupid!

A special Thank You to all of those on RU-vid for preserving and providing these special moments of our childhood and teens years. I've spent a lifetime of collecting items such as those in these commercials. My house is like a museum of the 60s and 70s. My logic is that the day will come when Dementia or Alzheimer's will strike. Having this memorabilia around will hopefully slow down the loss of memory and to also remind of when life was oh, so much more innocent. I wish the past few generations didn't have to deal with all the insanity going on in this country. We were very fourtunate. Lets find a way to keep the innocence alive for future generations. Love to our special Baby Boomers.

A four-slice toaster for less than $20?! HOW DO THEY DO IT?!?!

So many famous people of that decade. The food commercials brought back memories. I remember drinking Labrusco. The chocolate cow cereal. But the ring around the collar and high karati commercials, I remember were very popular! This was awesome!

I love going to sleep to this, I fell asleep by the tv a lot in the 70's!!

If I could turn back time 😢

i wish i was alive during this time. it seems so nice and cozy

Yes indeed life was better and people too I agree it's sad how this world has changed 😢

I grew up in the 60s and 70s and I remember a lot of these. The prices were certainly different back then.

These were great commercials. Now days all that's on TV are commercials advertising drugs with life threatening side affects. Sad but true.

One of the best differences from then is there were no pharmaceutical company ads! The world was much better then, or at least it seemed to be.

No prescription drug ads with the hundreds of side effects!

If anyone wants to know WHY America was better back then, just watch these commercials. The products were better, and the people were better. Friendly. More honest. Just better. I miss these days so so much. It was the last of the good times in America.

When fast food restaurants used to cook their food on a grill or fryer. Now the food is flash cooked in quick microwave type ovens. 😝 I remember these commercials thanks for posting.

I was born in 2000, but wow. So much less insulting on consumer intelligence and so much less obnoxious with no annoying gimicks

Wait... McDonald's had Banana shakes? 😋 😮 wow they need to seriously bring that back

When jingles were jingles!😊

Aw!! The gorgeous Kim Basinger washing her hair with Beer on Tap shampoo. Wow!!

I was born in '95 but these feel comforting to me

I. LOVE. LOVE LOVE. THE. 1970S SEND. ME. BACK HOME I. FEEL SICK HERE IN 2023 IT DOES. NOT AGREE WITH ME. OR MY BODY WHY BECAUSE I. AM HOMESICK THATS WHY

If you weren’t in the 70s you missed it all

15.02😮 the kosher hotdog commercial was trying to warn us ahead of time. You’ll never see a commercial like that today.

Mary Tyler Moore and Bob New Hart, I loved those shows as a young teen.

I get the distinct impression that Lucasfilms really didn't know how big their Star Wars franchise was going to be, based off the very general, no frills adverts on TV

Man, we had so fewer products back then!! My favorite commercials ever were the Ktel compilation series.

A different timeline. I am proud to been born in the 70s. We are currently in a new dimension.

I like these 70s commercials I,m an 80s baby

I love seeing ads for old technology. It makes you realize just how far things have come.

Love those times

19:51 That looks like Doug Llewelyn from The Peoples Court!

Thank you SO much for this wonderful collection.

The degree of mental disruption that happens when 'today's' youtube commercials pop into this vintage commercial space is huge! The sound, visuals and cadence is bonkers by comparison to the rather playful, whimsical, jaunty vibe of the classics. I am biased for being born in 1970 but still ... thanks for the upload!

I was born in 98 but this makes me feel happy❤

The 70s was classic. Growing into my teens was rough and so we’re a lot of these commercials. Lol. Great memories though.

44:23 ...wow what an ad.

Steve Guttenberg @5:30 did this commercial before he was a Toronto police officer.

Back when commercials were actually an art, and as a Gen X'er it hits home with me (especially those in the late 70s and into the 80s). Now commercials today are garbage like "reality" TV. Fun fact. The Bubblicious commercial was created at Lisberger Studios. Who were they? This was the studio that Steven Lisberger put together. So who was Steven? He was the director/creator of Disney's Tron and was a Producer as well as a character in Tron Legacy. Early on Steven and his team at Lisberger Studios did many of the animated commercials and worked on of Sesame Street's animation. He's also known for Animal-lympics that was played during the Winter Olympics in the 80s.

Love it! Commercials are so different now. I remember a lot of these. Appreciate you.

I'm 58 I remember a lot of these

I still enjoy the McDonald's fish sandwich it's the only item on the menu I eat 😊.

Back when employees didn't have a nasty attitude at McDonald's.

The 70s. Very interesting.

I had forgotten all about ILGWU’s “Look for the union label” song.

summer 1977

The California Compact girl stoned for sure😂

This is worth saving for Dorothy Hamill!😊

2:33 Kim Basinger. “ Batman” 1989, “L.A. Confidential” and “ 8 Mile.” Body on tap commercial. As a kid I remember that shampoo with beer in it. I wondered back then if you could drink it. Haha

SNL did a spoof of the textile/clothing union commercial in 1970s but the workers were growing weed instead of making garments.

No scantily clad, legs spread, orgasm emulating burger eating model commercials, everything advertised, marketed and produced IN American factories. Just wholesome portrayals of things for which the only thing people complained about was how loud they came blaring on during a movie or show😂

1:01 Peter Thomas for Coke. 46:29 Janet Carroll, who played the mom in the movie "Risky Business." 18:45 Fred Holliday, one of the all-time great commercial actors.

Watching The Mary Tyler Moore Show on Hulu and I've been muting the ads and watching this video instead. Works so well.

what wonderful memories im 56 and remember all of them groovy

Just subbed to you. Excellent job on this video. I so wanted to be a content creator. Except mine was all about Hot Wheels. But my health issues derailed all my hopes and then Covid-19 shattered them more. I do understand how much work entails this type of video. Great job sir! I'll be watching for you. I grew up in the 70's and 80's so these commercials are perfect for me. So many memories! Thanks again!

5:34 Steve Gutenberg for Honda

Loves baby soft, Mercury Zephyr z7. And Doug Leuwellin then Magnavox with Odyssey!

“Is cancer such big business, that we can’t afford to cure it? 39:16

Aldo Cella! Oh my! I haven't seen that in soooo long! I love these although i don't remember them all. Commercials used to try to entertain you while selling you something, and that often worked well. I'm not sure what they're trying to do with commercials now except drive you crazy. Those 5 minute pharmaceutical commercials! Ugh! Thanks very much for posting this.

So miss the 70s

And Shirley Jones!

22:50 My gosh. that girl in the milk commercial was so pretty!

4295$ for brand new car? Sign me up!

23:25 Ah...the good old days when men were men 😆

Hate to say this, but the demographics in these commercials is startlingly obvious and life looks so serene and peaceful. So sad what has happened to disrupt our world. Look at commercials today versus these and you’ll know what I mean. What a difference.

As a middle schooler I had a huge crush on Dorothy Hamill & the banana shake

Haha Pepto bismaol lady reminded me of Edith bunker advertising ant acid

I wasn't around for most of these as an early 80s baby but they make me nostalgic.

Memory has a way of making things seem better. And I’m grateful the brain can be kind to history. I don’t mean to be a downer, but there were MANY worries in the ‘70’s. Lots, if not most, average people were pretty sure the world was falling apart 😂. I’m really glad it all worked out ❤ It lets me enjoy these commercials fondly :-)

You people who grew up in the Boston area like I did in the '60s and '70s will remember that man fly fishing in the stream in the "I Love New York" ad at 5:03 - that's Rex Trailer, the host of the long-running Boston area kids show Boomtown. The woman at 20:54 in the Love's Baby Soft commercial is Julia Montgomery from Revenge of the Nerds. At 27:07 and 27:21 respectively in that One-a-Day vitamins commercial, that's Dee Wallace Stone (Elliott's mom in E.T.) and Barrie Youngfellow (It's a Living). And at 33:26 in the Right Guard ad, it's Kene Holliday from Carter Country and Matlock. In the Sammy Davis Jr. Alka-Seltzer spot at 34:28, the guy who answers the door is Dan Resin, who was Dr. Beeper in Caddyshack. At 52:19 in the Purina Cat Chow ad, the voice of the "97 ounce weakling" is Marvin Kaplan, who was the voice of Choo Choo on Top Cat, and was also Henry the plumber on Alice. I love how Jim Fixx is the spokesman in that ad for American Express, and in the commercial they show him running. For those too young to remember him, he was the famous marathon runner who died of a massive heart attack while he was out...running. SNL parodied that Mercury Monarch commercial, only instead of a diamond cutter they had a rabbi performing a bris (ouch!).

Sally has her rainbow colors in the right order

I like the sound of tape hist 😊

Fun fact: Serial killer, Rodney Alcala appeared on The Dating Game...the girl who won a date with him refused to go because he creeped her out. 😳

My mother had a mr. Coffee and the best coffee they made apart from the old silver pots and espresso machine

0:32- The late Bill Saluga, as "Raymond J. Johnson".

Thanks for sharing.
