WORKING DOLLARS (1957)

WORKING DOLLARS (1957): John Sutherland Productions-The characters in this film have really nice appealing shapes. They were designed by Bernie Gruver, who also worked as a designer at other commercial studios including John Wilson's Fine Arts Films and Playhouse Pictures. There's a great Gruver model sheet in my book for Friskies Dog Food, a series of commercials that he designed for Playhouse in the late 1950s.

The uncredited narrator is Marvin Miller, 'smurf'- his voice appeared in hundreds of industrial, commercial and animated films, movie trailers, and radio & TV commercials- as well as appearing as 'Michael Anthony' on TV's "THE MILLIONAIRE" at the time....

Reminds me of that scam that would come years later about the prince of Nigeria.

Craig McCracken (and his collaborator Genndy Tartakovsky) was partially inspired by '50s-style animation when he created and produced "THE POWERPUFF GIRLS", '03bgood'.

A clip of this was used in a new Nissan commercial, as an example of small cars.

You see? The stock market can be like a giant casino. Why, look over there! It's the Front Street Special Opportunities "slot machine". Oooooh, the RBC Global "roulette wheel". Let's put a dollar "in the black". Get it? In the black?

‎...and I think you'll find this informative list of top mutual funds as exciting as playing baseball, or your favourite television program, or doing your taxes!

Remember, as Mr. Finchley is advised, "Before you INVEST, INVEST-igate."

I think the strategy discussed here is dollar cost averaging. Yes, I am Captain Obvious.
