Clint Eastwood, ‘The Enforcer’ title card, 1976
“The Dirtiest Harry of them all.”
Here we have another movie spot from December of 1976. This one is for Clint Eastwood and Tyne Daly in The Enforcer. Have a wonderful Friday…punk!
Previously on 70s Spots: Daily 70s Spot #468: ‘A Star Is Born’ (Streisand, Kristofferson, 1976)
Streisand in full effect. (‘A Star Is Born,’ 1976)
“Sometimes, everything isn’t enough.”
This spot for the film, A Star Is Born runs one minute long. I could swear it takes at least twice that time. It’s not exactly action-packed. The promo aired in late December of 1976.
Previously on 70s Spots: Daily 70s Spot #467: Sony Betamax (1976)
Watch one channel, while recording another. It’s a miracle! (Sony Betamax commercial, 1976)
“With Sony’s Betamax you won’t miss a thing.”
I like the fellow in this spot for Sony’s Betamax recorder. He’s got quality comedic body language going. The commercial aired in December of 1976. Press play and enjoy.
Previously on 70s Spots: Daily 70s Spot #466: Head & Shoulders Shampoo (1976)
Yep, he’s got dandruff. (Head & Shoulders commercial, 1976)
“Strong against dandruff. Gentle on your hair.”
Dandruff alert! Time for Head & Shoulders.
Here’s a spot for the medicated shampoo mentioned above that aired in December of 1976. It stars…that…guy. (Like me, you’ll probably recognize him, but not know his name.)
Previously on 70s Spots: Daily 70s Spot #465: Tums ‘Mother Tums Loading Dock’ (1976)
Wherever there is stomach discomfort – she will be there! (Mother Tums commercial, 1976)
“There, there!”
Let’s do a 1976 thing this week. Makes sense after 1975, right? Right!
All right then. Here’s another “Mother Tums” Tums antacid commercial. This one aired in December of 1976.
Previously on 70s Spots: Daily 70s Spot #463, 464: Old Milwaukee & Schlitz Beer (1975)
A classic can. (Old Milwaukee commercial, 1975)
“Tastes as great as its name.”
Capping off 1975 Week, we have two beer commercials for a fine, lazy Sunday. First up, one for Old Milwaukee featuring “Babe Ruth.” After that, a team of cowboys go for the Gusto by rounding up a heard of buffalo. Both spots aired in July of 1975.
