With Mother’s Day fast-approaching in the US, I’ve rescued a Sears spot from the dumpster of time and displayed it below. It looks like this commercial for Kenmore dishwashers likely aired in both 1978 and ’79. You can also ingest spots for Pepsi (with an oh-so-hot competitive Frisbee tournament), the Ford Pinto line-up for ’79, and Excedrin P.M..

Have a lovely weekend. See you back here in a few.
