70s Commercials: Underwood Deviled Ham, Don Rickles, Star-Kist (1974-77)

Here’s a good batch of time capsules ranging from 1974 to 1977. You’ll find child actor Mason Reese in one of his numerous spots for Underwood, Don Rickles for National Car Rental, Charlie the Tuna for Star-Kist, and a trio of cats for Tabby. I don’t remember Tabby, but the other products certainly, and they’re still around today.
