Better late than never, here’s Friday’s post on a Sunday. Unfortunately, my web host was experiencing some serious server issues over the past day and a half and I was unable to update. Apologies if you checked in and experienced laggy performance or other wackiness. It now seems to be sorted out.

Here’s a quartet of seventies commercials from 1977 and ’78. You’ll find the sexy Triumph Spitfire, the not-so-sexy Freedent gum, Nice ‘n Easy hair color, and a Hardee’s Looney Tunes glasses offer. Happy Father’s Day!
