Even in its day that jingle hearkened back to a time already long past. That circa 1959 'hep cat' modern vocal jazz. This ad was targeted to pre-boomers, like my folks, who had already established families.
This was first seen around 1967, and usually shown during "THE LAWRENCE WELK SHOW" and "TED MACK'S ORIGINAL AMATEUR HOUR", both sponsored by the J.B. Williams Co. [Aqua Velva, Geritol and Sominex were among their other best-known products].

but then again so did the opening theme to the Parry Mason show.
