The one I like is the Cheetos one, where a dad, the tiger, and his two daughters are driving down the road. His favorite song come up. He belts out the song, and you see Cheetos vibrating to the music. I love bass . I've always had monster amps & speakers. Yup, I remember spilled Cheetos were dancing to Springsteen on my speakers, back in the 70s.

I can't recall those of years gone by but I love the ones right now, I think it's Subaru with the dogs driving with their pups in the child seats, so cute!
 
I remember singing along to this jingle when I was a little kid, there were a few back then that I liked.

 
Another beer commercial, I grew up with these guys!!!

Fond memories of sitting in a saloon with my father for a for a quick one, I always had an orange soda and a Hershey bar for the road along with a wink and a stern reminder "Don't tell your mother where we've been!". Like she couldn't figure it out, LOL!

Jonathon Winters was the voice of Schultz and Dooley.

Not to knit pick but that Chevy was a 53, not a 52, I had a 52, and the style change came the next year and was quite different...

I think it was done in 52 to promote the new models for 53.

Remember when the local car dealerships used to put drapes or papers over the showroom windows until the new models were released on television. I remember our local Ford dealer always had a big invitation only reception for the unveiling.
 
I loved watching a commercial by a famous comedian, but it took me quite a time until I realized that it was a commercial and what was being advertised, so in reality it was more of entertainment than advertisement.
 
Bea, I do remember those days, especially the Mercury dealer who had searchlights from the war flooding the skies to get our attention, and it did...
 
I think this one was GEICO insurance...but a camel is walking through a busy office setting trying to make various employees say that "it's hump day" it doesn't sound funny now but the camel is so BIG and unexpected and the people in the office don't seem shocked to see him there... I guess you had to be there.

Another from early 1950's tv was the dancing girl cigarette boxes - this one was on the Gleason show or some other variety show. As a kid those women dancing with a big pack of cigarettes covering their upper bodies sort of fascinated me.

Another - do you remember FARFO, the puppet dog who would sing the Nestles jingle; NESTLES IS THE VERY BEST - CHOOOOCLAT!

or...YOU'LL WONDER WHERE THE YELLOW WENT WHEN YOU BRUSH YOUR TEETH WITH PEPSODENT

or...(I think this was a print ad) ONLY HER HAIRDRESSER KNOWS FOR SURE

or...BRYLCREAM, A LITTLE DAB WILL DO YA or...WONDERBREAD BUILDS STRONG BODIES TWELVE WAYS

Do you remember what was 99 and 44/100th's percent pure???

Lived a couple years on West St. Not far from the brewery. Took their tour a few times and this was back in the sixties when this commercial was real popular.
 
Great thread! I remember the Pepsodent commercial well. As kids we changed it to; "You'll wonder where you went last night when you brush your teeth with dynamite".

I remember some old jingles.
"Knock on any Norge. Hear the solid sound of quality. Knock on any Norge!" This was a fridge commercial from around 1960.
" There's something about an Aqua Velvet man". After shave for men advertised by baseball stars.
"Big roads, high roads, anywhere a truck can go. Ford brings you more."
"Lookout Cat, lookout skidoo, the big red one is coming through". Scorpion snowmobile commercial from around 1970.
"Takes a lickin but keeps on tickin". Old Timex comercial.

It was Ivory soap that was 99.44 % pure.
