Vintage Commercials 1960's Commercials Post Crispy Critters Cereal, 

Wow. that is a nice copy. I remember an episode of Linus the Lion-Hearted with the Rice Krinkles mascot. He was sheep-herding.. I have not seen that show since it aired back in the day. it must have been 1965 ish.

They were great treat cereal packs like the potato chip ones

In addition to Saturday morning cartoons, Sunday morning had an ABC program "Linus the Lion-Hearted" which included Linus, the Alpha-Bits Postman, the Rice Krispies boy, and the other Post Cereal mascots.

Thanks for telling who voiced the bird.I have seen Sheldon Leonard and Jessie White on many shows-and have heard them more than I realize.

This is so cute! And I love Sheldon Leonard's voice for the lion!

This 1963 ad featured Sheldon Leonard as "Linus", and Jesse White is the "noisy bird".

The voice of the lion sounds familiar :D

The animation here's actually a little higher quality than the commercials that followed it, or what was used on the "Linus the Lionhearted Show" which debuted in 1964 (on CBS, it moved to ABC later). Sheldon Leonard provided the voice of Linus, in large part because Leonard was the producer of The Danny Thomas Show, The Andy Griffith Show and The Dick Van Dyke Show, all on CBS and all sponsored by Post's owner, General Foods.

this is from my personal collection of tapes i have with original commercials the person i got this from had it listed as saturday morning cartoon. all the Post Cereal mascots. . are in the cartoon . Suger bear and Linus was in a sky race in one eps i have . they cut to them between cartoons before commercials break.

hello Keep checking my channel . I will be posting more old commercials over the few years . i have over 10000 commercials from 1948-1989 to post and i am buying more old tv shows with original commercials every day from 1948-1989 . I am a little slow in posting now do to i have to pay for every GB i use but that will be changing sometime this year .

What does the lion say from 0:39 to 0:50 ? I don't get what he's whispering there. Please help, is for a good friend of mine who needs it for university.

NOBODY SAYS THE NAME OF THE CEREAL
