Was that Kissinger at 0:36?

Great campaign!  Where do you find these relics?

@BearzLA This commercial was created by the NY State Department of Commerce back in the 1980s. They transferred this film and others to the New York State Archives to be preserved permanently. In case you didn't see them, we have other "I Love NY" videos on our channel as well. Thanks for commenting!

Living in Los Angeles, isn't New York cost of living twice as much?

Classic ad!

[flori1551]

I adore this great classic commercial with its classic stars! Why has this place lost all its glitter? Let's bring back all the great artists & clean up the politicans. Who doesn't love New York?
