Greetings, me hearties! The actor playing the lead pirate in this Long John Silver’s spot looks and sounds like Richard B. Shull (Holmes & Yo-Yo). If it isn’t him, he’s got a double. The commercial aired in June of 1977.

I think you are right. Sounds just like him.
Yes, I’m pretty sure it’s Shull. The voice definitely pegs him.
