10 Commercials from the 40s

Dang Scottie’s tissues raised the bar didn’t they?

El Doctor fumando 😶

Meanwhile ads in Germany from the 40s:

KAUFEN SIE REICHSMILCH

SIE IST SEHR GUT

those super stick bandaids are amazing

I like base balling kids? That didn’t age well 😂

that potato head one was pretty cool... had no idea they used to use actual potatoes.. and the fact that the $2 option was the pricy one was pretty interesting as well.. i feel like if i don't ive my nephews $100 2x a year they feel like they got nothing at all haha

Not 40's!

Vacuum tubes were obsolete soon after when transistors came.

Mr. and Mrs. Potato Head are terrifying.

Mister Potato Head V.O. sounds like Bart Simpson.

9 of 10 doctors recommend Camel cigarettes.

Scotty does indeed have a magic hole.

No sabía qué toy stire era tan viejo

Energy packed white sandwich bread is wild

$2 had to be a lot of money back then and then hunger had to be common around then so I’m surprised Mr potato head made it

Back when coca cola had real coke in it.

Aaahh nothing screams old school more than a doctor advertising a brand of cigarettes. Health at its best.

Most of these commercials are not from the 1940’s… 1950’s most likely,

When times were simple. None of this BS that's in today's world

$1.29 in the forties?
Gillette was always overpriced.

They manipulated us so bad back then lol

The sunbeam bread one was just a guy yelling over bad tape

Sunbeam bread gives you the energy to sit on many different things!

My doctor smokes weed when I’m there. He always shares too. I highly recommend him.

A hateful time in history 1940s please.

I know everyone thinks these are wholesome but im just thinking that the majority of these people are dead

Band aids plastic strips dont work like they did 80years ago & more doctors smoke camel😂😂

You can hear the commercial and it’s legit. No rap music for the intro/outro.

First video was a kid doing Cocaine, in drink form.

Me watching Men from the 40s in a shaving commercial: why they kinda 👀👀🫦

OK cool but no one had a TV in the 1940s. Shown in movie theaters?

I bet pulling off those super stick band-aids was fun

I don't recall the creepy clown culture until the 80s. Did creepy clowns even exist before that time? I need someone at least 50 to answer this!

these ads are cool and calming, now you have a screaming bird holding a box of cereal and turning everything into chocolate while screaming coo coo for coo coo puffs, god it makes me pissed off 🤬

I totally thought there was going to be some kind of punchline with the coke one with the mom coming back lol

This shows we have not changed and all the ads say the same shit today, sell the same shit

Soooo...Keds shoes allow you to hit a baseball a half a mile?🤨
I guess class action lawsuits hadn't come around yet in those days😂

"More doctors smoked Camels than any other cigarette."😂
They also invented the A-bomb before the derailleur gear; meaning they knew how to destroy the world before they knew how to change gears on a bicycle.
People lament how great things were then, but it was fundamentally the dark ages compared to now.

Fck I wanna go back in time for

Something is wrong with your diet if you need a "snack" to ride a carousel horse. And why the screaming? Scare us into buying the bread?

Don Zimmer didn't play until 1954. Definitely not a 40's commercial.

these ads are way better than current ads

Scotty's magic oval box is now pretty too and soft inside....... Now I do believe that's what she said 🧐

They don't make them like they used to anymore

When you skip 3 sets of 2 ads to watch 10 ads

Bandaid.... used to be flesh color and now theyre 'i want skin cancer' tan color

cannot be from the 40's. Probably mid 50's and above: in the 40's there were still too few televisions in American homes to justify such an investment in advertising.

That little girl did cocain 😂😂😂😂
