My all time favorite as a kid.... I used to come running to watch this commercial if I was in another room... I'm 44 so that tells you how old this commercial is.

I remember seeing this commercial every December when Rudolph the Red- Nosed Reindeer was on. Those were big nights on TV when I was a kid. Nothing at all like today.. and thats a shame.

@tonybklyn I'm slightly older and like the other poster, I would come running from another room when I heard the commercial. I guess pretty cheesy by today's CGI standards, but back then they were the best! I remember these back into the 60's best of all...

The sign of Christmas. I remember watching this while browsing my way through the Sears Christmas catalog. When Christmas was Christmas. Right up there with Henry Fonda and Gee Aa F (GAF) Viewmaster and instamatic cameras with flash cubes.

54 years old, and I can remember as a child when this commercial started rotating after Thanksgiving you KNEW Christmas was coming soon. I truly believe this commercial is endeared by most of who kids in the 60's.

@gymnastix Oops, I said "Christmas." I forgot the Imperial Grand Wizardry of The United States of Secular Social Justice, Obama Bin Biden, have forbidden use of that term; that unless we are referring to Kwanzaa, Hanukkah, and/or Ashura (or live in a commune in Berkeley, California or Cambridge, Massachusetts, and are displaying a Rainbow flag, facing west, at 5:30 p.m. on the 22nd day of the Winter Solstice), all other winter religious observations are to be referred to as "holidays."

I remember an earlier one of these Noelco commercials from the early-to-mid 1960s. I wonder if it will ever turn up here on You Tube, or if the original of these is on one of those commercials compilation DVD sets?

I seem to recall having first watched one of these when Norelco was sponsoring some Christmas TV special.
