Hello everyone! A very warm welcome to you all! The video I have selected for this post is a two minute vintage TV ad from the 1950's for Skippy peanut butter. Enjoy!
The photos I am sharing are ones that I took on one of my walks in August 2013. You just need to click on the images to see a larger view.
Thank you all so much for visiting me here! I always appreciate and enjoy reading your kind thoughts, which you are always welcome to share by clicking on the 'comments' link at the end of my post.
Those are neat photos and this advert couldn't come at a more opportune time as I got such a craving for peanut butter tonight that I helped myself to a teaspoon of it right out of the jar!!!
ReplyDeleteIt's amazing that TV commercials used to be so long! Now they usually 10 seconds and we have ten times as many of them!
ReplyDeleteskippy was my favorite PB as a kid
ReplyDeleteI love the way the light is shining through the leaves in that first pic Linda. Gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteEverything looks so green in the first photo, with just a touch of fall color in the second one. It's going to be awhile before we see that much green again.
ReplyDeleteI always enjoy those vintage ads...maybe because I'm vintage myself. :)
Nice photos!

I've never seen that commercial but I did grow up on Skippy Peanut Butter.
ReplyDeleteNow a days I like creamy Jiff.
entretemps, la publicité a fort changé
ReplyDeletej'aime les couleurs et la lumière du premier cliché..
bon weekend
Ciao Linda!
ReplyDeleteGrazie per essere passata a visitare il nostro blog!
Tanti saluti dall'Italia
A different age...whether it's the video or pictures...I like blasts from the past! I miss the greens of summer already...guess I'd better deal with it...it's a long way from spring or summer.
ReplyDeleteOlá, o vídeo mostra a aquela publicidade que marcou uma época e não é esquecida.
ReplyDeleteAs fotos captadas na natureza estão excelentes.
Abraço

Dear Linda - you are making me wistful for summer - those leaves look so refreshing. That Skippy Peanut butter commercial brings back childhood memories. It is the only kind of peanut butter my grandparents bought and I always ate it there (I admit now that I am a Jif fan-sorry). Have a great day.
ReplyDeleteGreat to watch the old adverts Linda. I remember our first TV back in the 50's and all the ads were live. We didn't take much notice as kids, but watching them again on youtube, they were hilarious.
ReplyDeleteStill summer, Linda, nice now...
ReplyDeleteLie(f)s.
The older simpler ads bring back memories for me too. Often today after some commercials are over I wonder what they were for. :)
ReplyDeleteDear Linda, thank you for writing and warmest regards from Vienna!
