Classic Kid Commercials Part 1
Remember comedian Joe E Brown for The 3 Musketeers chocolate candy bar, Lucky Charms is a popular, ready-to-eat breakfast cereal produced by General Mills featuring frosted toasted oats and multi-colored marshmallows (charm shapes). The original cereal made its debut in 1964 and is famously known for its leprechaun mascot, Lucky.
Cocoa Puffs is a classic, General Mills-manufactured chocolate-flavored puffed corn breakfast cereal introduced in 1956. Famous for its slogan "I'm cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs!" and its mascot, Sonny the Cuckoo Bird, the cereal is designed to leave the leftover milk with a rich, "slurp-a-licious" chocolate
Trix is a colorful, fruit-flavored sweetened corn puff cereal produced by General Mills. It is famous for its six fruity shapes (Grape, Raspberry, Lemon, Orange, Wildberry, and Watermelon) and the classic slogan, "Silly rabbit, Trix are for kids!"
In 1965, Topper Toys released Super Helmet Seven, electronic headgear that allowed kids to mimic “men of action”, like jet pilots, skydivers, and race car drivers — a claim the company featured in its advertising campaigns.
The “7” in Super Helmet Seven was a reference to the seven safety features built into the helmet’s all-plastic and shock-resistant core.
Using one D-cell battery, kids had access to left and right directional signals, a safety warning buzzer, a rear reflector light, a detachable flashlight-headlight, and a top-mounted flasher light. To complement the helmet’s lighting capabilities, tinted amber goggles and protective ear flaps were included.
Many television commercials for Cheerios have targeted children, featuring animated characters (such as a Honey bee).
Bullwinkle was featured in early 1960s commercials, with the tagline at the end of the ad being "Go with Cheerios!" followed by Bullwinkle, usually worse for wear due to his Cheerios-inspired bravery somewhat backfiring, saying "...but watch where you're going!" Hoppity Hooper was also featured in ads in the mid-1960s; General Mills was the primary sponsor of his animated program.

![The George Jessel Show
George Albert Georgie Jessel (April 3, 1898 – May 23, 1981) was an American actor, singer, songwriter, and film producer. He was famous in his lifetime as a multitalented comedic entertainer, achieving a level of recognition that transcended his limited roles in movies.
He was widely known by his nickname, the Toastmaster General of the United States, for his frequent role as the master of ceremonies at political and entertainment gatherings. Jessel originated the title role in the stage production of The Jazz Singer.
Jessel appeared in his first motion picture, the silent movie The Other Mans Wife (1919). In 1924, he appeared in a brief comedy sketch in a short film made in the DeForest Phonofilm sound-on-film process.[8]
In 1925, he emerged as one of the most popular leading men on Broadway with the starring role in the stage production of The Jazz Singer.
The success of the show prompted Warner Bros.—after their success with Don Juan (1926) with music and sound effects only—to adapt The Jazz Singer as the first talkie with dialogue and to cast Jessel in the lead role. However, the studio refused his salary demands, so Jessel turned down the movie role, which was eventually played by Al Jolson.
According to Jessel during an interview around 1980, Warner Bros. still owed Jessel money for earlier roles and lacked enough funds to produce this movie with a leading star. Jolson, the biographical inspiration for the movie, became the movies main financial backer.
Jessels next movie role was in Private Izzy Murphy (1926). Whereas Jolsons film career skyrocketed after the 1927 release of The Jazz Singer, Jessel remained in smaller movie roles, often intended for audiences fond of Jewish and other ethnic humor.[5] He was elected to The Lambs Theatre Club in 1942.[9]
In the mid-1940s, he began producing musicals for 20th Century Fox, producing 24 films in all in a career that lasted through the 1950s and 1960s. At the same time he became known as a host on the banquet circuit, famous for his good-natured wit aimed at his fellow celebrities.
In 1946, he was one of the founding members of the California branch of the Friars Club. (A recording exists of an example of his blue work in front of a stag audience, although it was actually recorded at a roast hosted by the Friars rival, the Masquers Club.) He also traveled widely overseas with the USO entertaining troops. As he grew older, he wrote eulogies for many of his contemporaries in Hollywood. He wrote three volumes of memoirs, So Help Me (1943), This Way, Miss (1955), and The World I Lived In (1975).
Jessel produced a number of Hollywood films, including The Dolly Sisters (1945), Nightmare Alley (1947), Golden Girl (1951) and The I Dont Care Girl (1953).
In the early 1950s, he performed on the radio in The George Jessel Show, which became a television series of the same name from 1953 to 1954.[10]
He guest-starred on NBCs The Jimmy Durante Show. In 1968, he starred in Here Come the Stars, a syndicated variety show. However, his attempt to extend his career was undermined by a perception that his style of comedy was outdated, as well as by his outspoken support of the American entry into the Vietnam War and of conservative political causes.
He often crossed the eras stereotypical political lines with its support for the civil rights movement and criticism of racism and anti-Semitism.
His outspoken political opinions were, at times, the source of scandal. The George Jessel Show](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/ncv-SloUIeo/mqdefault.jpg)
