Campbell Soup Company was Donna's primary sponsor from 1958 through '65; she often appeared in "integrated commercials" or offered "premiums" on behalf of her sponsor at the end of the episode (this is from a fall '61 episode). Johnson & Johnson {"The Finest Name In Surgical Dressings"} was her "alternate sponsor" until the end of the 1962-'63 season. The Singer Company {the famous sewing machine manufacturer} replaced J&J in the fall of '63, and lasted until '65.
I like this clip - and the tag from the show with the sponsor.
