Betty could sing the phone book and I'd listen. I'm off to the grocery store to buy some cleaner now...

@heavymetal4000 Mae Questel, best known as the voice of BETTY BOOP was still very much alive and active at this time. She returned as the voice of OLIVE OYL for a START Instant Orange Juice commercial made around this time. So it's unknown as to why she was not contacted since she was alive. Perhaps she wasn't available, or the money wasn't right.

@BooppoopaDoop Ann Rothschild (a.k.a. Little Ann Little) was a Christian and later became an ordained minister. There was a newspaper article about her in the 1970s, BETTY BOOP GOES TO CHURCH. Ironic, eh?

@RayPointer What I meant to say was the dating of the commerical is later, more like early 70s.

@lily104 that's cuz it's a diffrent chic singing
This is much later than the 1960s. Formula 409 did not come out until sometime around the late 60s or early 70s.
