In my continuing series celebrating the 60th anniversay of Peanuts, I present another installment of "Peanuts as Pitchmen," in which the gang shills various products (as they've done for many companies throughout the years). Today is comprised of single commercials for various products rather than one product throughout the article.
We've got Milkbone:
Peanut butter (In Australia, no less):
Cheerios (with some nice 80s flair):
And even some funky French beverage:
Lastly, this is an interesting public service announcement raising funds for the Statue of Liberty restoration project, which led to the big unveiling and celebration of 1986.
Thanks!
