Bell System raking in the pennies. (1975)

“Dial and save while weekend rates apply.”

A veddy happy, Monday, ‘Bionic pals. This week, let’s stay on a 1975 track. To get us started, here’s a spot for Bell System telephone touting new 22 cent weekend call rates.

I find it interesting that Bell never refers to themselves in the spot. Perhaps so they can use the commercial across the nation where the Bell name might not apply. The spot aired in May of 1975.
