Subject: seen em all but 2!!
All of these commercials, save 2, can be found in the archive. The 2 that arent, an opening bumper for "Your Hit Parade" and a hilarious commercial for skin ointment are well worth watching, especially the skin ointment one, which is the dryest telling of Little Red Riding Hood EVER.
