70s Commercials: Wurlitzer Organ, Imperial Margarine, Hormel Ham, Prolong (1972-73)

“It may just change your mind!”

Greetings, New Yearians! Our first batch of commercials for 2025 features the years 1972 and ’73. First up, a groovy spot for Wurlitzer’s Orbit III Spinet Organ and Electric Synthesizer. I never had one of these myself, but whenever I stumbled across one at a friend or relative’s place I’d hop on the keys and drive everyone crazy for a while.

Next, you’ll find spots for Imperial Margarine, Hormel’s Cure 81 holiday hams, and Prolong Christmas Tree Preserver. Enjoy, enjoy.

  1. These were great! Loved seeing that organ in psychedelic action, but the other ones were fun too. Can’t remember the last time I ate margarine, but I always loved that Imperial! Thank you & Happy New Year, BD :^)
