1967 TV commercial for Clairtone Sound Corp.

At its peak in the 1960s, Clairtone Sound Corporation was one of the most admired companies in the field of electronics. Founded by Peter Munk and David Gilmour in Toronto, Canada, Clairtone made the wildly modern Project G hi-fi system and, later, the G-TV. The commercial, shot in July 1967 by famous Canadian cinematographer Frank Spiess, was produced by Young & Rubicam. It features Munk and Gilmour, then in their 30s, at a studio in Toronto and includes footage from Clairtone's infamous factory in Stellarton, Nova Scotia.

Good commercial. Was 1967 the first full year of the color test pattern that everyone knows now?

Thank-you for justifying the tobacco addicts.

Tobacco is a gateway drug.

Snap out of it, Clem.

Very classy - production wise. Things were a lot more relaxed back in the day.

Calm down. This is not a political statement. It is a freakin' commercial from the sixties, when people were held responsoble for their CHOICE to smoke. HA!

[Siteway]

This is brilliant.

I noticed the smoking too. Back then, it was probably not a prop.

Today smoking is in everything from movies, TV Sitcoms, News Clips, Cartoons, etc..

These bastards(tobaco companies), are not permitted to make a 30 second commercial, yet they can make a 3 hr. movie, with nothing but smoking. KILLERS in the 1st degree!!!!

Govt. should ban any smoking on TV&movies. Trouble is, those types of people got the elected. We whould not watch a movie, where the main theme is SMOKING!! BOYCOTT.....
