1001 Classic Commercials DVD set

1001 Classic Commercials DVD

 I have been wanting to get this DVD set for a few years. But never saw it in any stores. Then last year I was trading some DVDs with a buddy of mine. And he had the set and didn't want it. So we worked out a deal. A few weeks later I got in a huge package. The first thing I watched was parts of this set.

The set has 3 DVDs. The commercials are grouped into categories. Like say toys,food,cigarettes,etc. Now I haven't watch every thing on all 3 discs. But what I have watched has been pretty fun. Sadly some of the commercials are in such bad shape they are really hard to see or hear. But then there is some that look amazing when you consider how old they are. One of my faves is one that has Bugs Bunny and the Monkees advertising Kool Aid. Plus I love all the various ads for toys and cigarettes.

I have noticed that this set keeps turning up in the Walmart $5 bin. And it is more than worth that price. 1001 Classic Commercials gets a B.
