An eclectic selection of early to mid-seventies commercials on display today. First up, we have Hasbro’s Wacky Wheel toy in a goofy spot I think you’ll enjoy. Following that, it’s an animated ad for GE light bulbs, the 1974 Chevy Monte Carlo, and a rather obscure candy (which I do vaguely remember) Pacers Mint Chews. Have a grand weekend.
