Whiskey salesmen love cartoons!

I think that to be able to watch this as a small, drunk child would be better than any acid.

Seeing this for the first time, I imagined the animals drinking...and getting drunk...on the PM Whiskey at the picnic...it looked like the bee was sipping from a shotglass.

This ad is boldly and unashamedly stupid.
It must have been made for people whose
skulls are empty.

@dukeyflyswatter Especially ones that look like "Bambi."

@UCONNgirl Chad was Chad Grothkopf; he did lots of comics in the Forties & Fifties. Created "Hoppy the Marvel Bunny." If that isn't special, I don't know what is.

I still can't believe this commercial was even made.

This cartoon ad is on Cultoons volume 1 DVD From thunderbean animation company I had it, is nice rare stuff.

Joe Camel WISHES he was this cool.
Art Carney of Ed Norton of the Honeymooners fame did some of the narration voices in this?

I love how it says directed by chad. Like chad is so special. Was this a training video for salesmen or an honest to god ad for children?

It was a movie targeted for whiskey distributers to motivate them to sell more. I don't know why they chose to present it in this way -- different time I guess

Jesus! And I thought ads trying to sell kids cigarettes were bad! This practically screams, "Hey kids! Start drinking!"

Well... to be fair, it was intended to be viewed by Whiskey distributers, not shown on TV afterschool or anything.
