Classic Commercial 1950s for Lucky Strikes [ It's Light Up Time ]

[fromthesidelines]

Originally seen in 1955 (that's when they used the "Light-Up Time" jingle)- and often seen on "THE JACK BENNY PROGRAM" and 'YOUR HIT PARADE" {featuring Dorothy Collins and conductor Raymond Scott}, both sponsored by Luckies.

Damn, I miss the sights, sounds, and even smells, of the beautiful Old American Republic. The gestalt of the times was so free and American. Harmonious ear-catching Lucky Strike commercials were just part of the beautiful backdrop of a nation we can't even envision now.

Cruise the turnpike in a tail-finned car, Frank Sinatra on the radio, chrome all around you, Luckys in the shirt pocket, a pretty woman in the passenger's seat, and being an American was first class. Nice while it lasted
