Flintstones Cigarette Commercial - Flintstones Smoking 1950s Retro Ad

Fred and Barny light one (or two) up in this ad. It seems more realistic for Fred to be selling cigarettes than pitching vitamins for kids. He doesn't even have kids. He smokes, he bowls... Anyway, here's another one but shorter: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=63MtS_NDtIY

@Linkjerto

Those weren't lighters, those were.... Flint Stones. 

[forgames033]

Hook'em while they're young.

[Linkjerto]

How did they get lighters?

@TheLando71 first of all, this commercial was made in 1961, a year after the show first started.

It's sad that Fred Flintstone died of small cell lung cancer in 1994 and Barney Rubble had constant emphasema for most of his later life in retirement. He died in 1989 after his toilet bit him, leading to profuse bleeding. However, Peter Botchright, the lizard that played Dino, lives to this day and works as a parking attendant in a Sainsbury's car park in Leighton Buzzard. And he still smokes too!

Aren't ladies supposed to be working in the kitchen?

[TheLando71]

smoking wasnt considered bad in the 50's

I find rather ironic that Vilma and Bethy voice actors died of lung cancer years later.
