The Museum of Classic Chicago Television (www.FuzzyMemories.TV) | Mr. Match by Scripto - "Strikes Again!" (Commercial, 1976) 🚬 @FuzzyMemoriesTV | Uploaded 9 months ago | Updated 1 hour ago
Here's a commercial for Mr. Match butane lighters by Scripto - a competitor of Bic lighters at one point. They had "flick your bic" so they had to try and come up with a jingle or something equally catchy.
(See also - the industry standard: Bic Lighters - "Flick of My Bic" (Commercial, 1976) - youtu.be/SddobOBPczc)
This aired on local Chicago TV on Saturday, June 26th 1976 during the 11:00pm to 11:30pm timeframe.
