MY MERRY OLDSMOBILE - An advertise movie by FLEISCHER Studios

MY MERRY OLDSMOBILE

In this classic Oldsmobile advertisement, Lovely Lucille is menaced by a villain and rescued by her pint-sized true love. The advertisement is a musical developed by FLEISCHER Studios as a sing-along cartoon. There is a good deal of what at the time was considered "naughty" images. Both Lucille and her nemesis are driving Oldsmobiles – guess who comes out ahead !

DOWN THE GASOLINE TRAIL - An advertise movie for CHEVROLET Division

DOWN THE GASOLINE TRAIL

For this Jam Handy clip, his master production team combines real photography and cartoon animation to demonstrate what happens to a drop of gasoline from the time it is put into the gasoline tank of a Chevrolet to the time the car’s engine roars to life. This early Chevrolet film superimposes cartoon animation over industrial photography as it follows an anthropomorphized drop of gasoline through the "efficiently designed gasoline delivery system" of a Chevy engine. It is fascinating to see how the animation is incorporated into the natural photography!

A COACH FOR CINDERELLA - An advertise movie for CHEVROLET Division

A COACH FOR CINDERELLA

Darn those evil step-sisters ! This is a hilarious retelling of the Cinderella story. In the cartoon the Chevrolet is magically built out of plant and animal life : caterpillars roll into circles and become automobile tires; in the visible V-6 fireflies equal spark plugs and mice provide motive power. Why not ? Isn’t that what fairy godmothers are for ? All of the animation was supervised by master artist Frank GOLDMAN.

A RIDE FOR CINDERELLA - An advertise movie for CHEVROLET Motor Company

A RIDE FOR CINDERELLA

Who knows what could happen to Cinderella if she does not get home from the ball by midnight ? Whatever her fate, it’s probably worse than getting grounded or spending a week without television ! In this classic animated short Cinderella relies on a Chevrolet to carry her home by midnight through obstacles and storms. Cinderella stays at the prince’s ball so late that it may be impossible for her to get home before the stroke of twelve. Perhaps a Chevy will come to her aid after all !

PEG LEG PEDRO - An advertise movie for CHEVROLET Motor Company

PEG LEG PEDRO

Oh no! Children are being menaced by evil pirate Peg Leg Pedro ! This animated short combines Treasure Island, Spanish gold, & young love into a thrilling ad for Chevrolet. Things look bad for our young lovers until Nicky Nome comes to the rescue and all ends well.

EXTRA ESSO - An advertise movie for ESSO Standard Oil Company

EXTRA ESSO

This creepy short is mostly live action but incorporates animation towards the end. Most of the clip is a standard advertisement for Esso gasoline until the gas jockeys suddenly break into a jingle and the Esso sign mutates into a grinning face! It’s a bit strange but is a good look at how advertisers were trying to mix animation and live action.

BREAKFAST PALS - An advertise movie for KELLOG Company

BREAKFAST PALS

This is one of the original Snap ! Crackle ! Pop ! Rice Krispies advertisements. In this adventure the elves battle Mushy, Soggy & Toughy for control of breakfast bowls. An interesting aspect is the grey Rice Krispies box from the dark ages of package design. It is fascinating to see what these television icons looked like 70 years ago !

THE PRINCESS AND THE PAUPER - An advertise movie for CHEVROLET Motor Company

This time his job is to rescue a treasure-laden pauper from the Valley of Jewels. He does so by taking him on a magic carpet ride to visit a beautiful princess.
