This commercial was made for the Netherlands-based company Phillips (the company that invented compact audio tapes) in 1937 in three versions: Dutch, Norwegian and German. Being one of the best in his business, the German creator Hans Fischerkoesen was in high demand at the time, not just in his home country. His animation art was top notch back then, giving cues to quite a few American animators. GIven the oportunity to leave Germany, he might have become world famous. Cheers, Julia
Very interesting -- especially the early color photography. But the sun has a lifetime measured in billions of years. What's that bulb going to last -- maybe 1000 hours or so?
Definatately has something to do with Norway because the last frame has the word "Norske" in it. Also, it has to be some very Northern country if the sun's rising at 3:58.
It's gotta be Norwegian. It ain't Swedish, not Finnish, not Danish, nor Kraut. It's not Russian, Ukrainian; no Polish therebout. No Flemish, no Dutch, no hot Spanish wench... Everyone knows Allah's Dhimmis all take Orders in French! The Continent is a big mess, again. I hear the most popular name amongst newborns in Europe is 'Mo-hammed'.
And what would happen if the bulb burns out? The Sun will have to be king again... ech

seems odd for one of hitler's aminators to use yankee doodle, and the nutcracker
i know its norwegian but still sounds ironic

Heh, hardly modest about the product!
A delightful bit of old animation none the less.

What if it's 1937 and you live in Norway?

Most of those energy efficient lightbulbs are actually made in China.

Yes it's Norwegian. Old written Norwegian like we don't write any more.
Norway is not a memeber of the EU if that is what you're talking about, if not I have no idea what you're on about...

Made for the Norwegian market. The last title card says Philips lightbulbs were Norwegian made.
