[TierodMcslush]

[Tundraboy05]

The title says 1957.

The license plate says 1959.

[428sj]

Plymouth is gone because poor people are not permitted to buy brand new cars anymore.....Think about it.....

[428sj]

With gas at 15 cents a gallon, you could go on cross-country trips! That is real RAP music... I like it!!

1959

[2ndamen]

57's were the best ones. NOT this 59

[PhiloPharnsworth]

Yeah, $2,254 was a great price...unless you made only $5,000 a year, like average workers earned back then! My dad was a high-paid executive at a whopping $200 a week. Lawrence Welk was known to be tight with a buck...he paid scale to all of his performers...so this cast, entirely from the Welk show, likely made similar salaries, and got nothing extra for appearing in spots like these.

Like she knows what a torsion bar is!

[robsatease]

[fromthesidelines]

Yes, 'dandy'; Chrysler's Plymouth division sponsored Lawrence Welk in a second series (in addition to his Saturday night "DODGE DANCING PARTY") from 1956 through '59- it was originally titled "LAWRENCE WELK'S TOP TUNES AND NEW TALENT" on Mondays- then it moved to Wednesday nights as "THE PLYMOUTH SHOW" in the fall of 1958. These live commercials were seen on the show in late 1958.

[ruizj2006]

[Plymouth1957]

I believe this a 1959 Plymouth

[dandydonaldo]

Wasn't Plymouth a sponsor of Lawrence Welk? I recognized Larry Hooper and that deep bass voice.

[RRaquello]

That gal @ 1.43 is Alice Lon, the original champagne lady from the Welk show.
