Visualize yourself loading a disc into your DVD Player and be instantly transported back to any time you chose in the past five decades ... think how that would feel.
Let me tell you, it’s the closest thing you’re gonna find to a real live time machine. It’s just like I’ve captured the past and brought it into your home.
Now I know what you're thinking, what is this guy talking about?
Hi, my name’s Lionel, and this "captured time” I speak of are long forgotten links with some of the most entertaining times in your life. Here’s an opportunity to step into the past with something you’d least expect ... yesterday’s TV Commercials.
It’s an absolute riot! Remember the “Talking Parkay” margarine (oops, I mean “butter!”) Just ask Mikey ... he likes it!
And who could forget little old 4-foot 11-inches Clara Pellar ... “Where’s the Beef?”
See them all appear on your TV screen in the comfort of your own home, any time you chose.
This blast from the past is priceless! What an experience, to be connected to all those great years again.
Here's How It Happened
I almost feel like a keeper of the keys to a magical kingdom. But this land, frozen in time, was not easy to create.
After years of painstaking research, I've collected over 12,980 classic TV commercials that are now archived on *Fifty-Nine Volumes*. They range from the 1950s, all the way into the late 1990s.
I performed this incredible feat because no one else would. Or could.
In the summer of 2001 I had compiled and debuted the Early Eighties Saturday Morning Commercials found on "Volume 1" of my Videomercials Exclusives. It was the very first compilation I had made (and my most popular one.)
Before 2001, no one online was offering official or unofficial releases of '80s and '90s TV commercials in broadcast format. It's as if you had stepped inside of a Time Machine and it took you back to a specific year, and watching the commercials in the same order as it had originally aired on your television.
Talk about authenticity!
I wanted my compilations to be distinct from the others so I edited out the repeated commercials and TV programs... nothing else. And as a result I had a compilation of commercials that resembled the original TV broadcast.
You see, prior to August of 2001 I was just like you. I was searching for vintage TV commercials from a specific decade, and the compilations that I had found were truly underwhelming. They were either:
Poorly edited.
So instead of wallowing in disappointment, I vowed to compile TV commercials the way most of us want to view them... in broadcast format.
The research began ... and even some horse-trading with some collectors who have titles they’ve never released to anyone else ... and won’t again. But I’ve made these available to you, and you can’t get them anywhere else.
"Remember When You Were a Kid?
That Part of You Still Lives..."
Think how wonderful it would be to watch a broadcast from both Network and Independent TV Stations decades ago in this present time. A doorway into all those wonderful forgotten years.
Watching these DVDs and VHS tapes will literally bring you back with stunning footage of original ads. Each Video or DVD (that you select) contain up to 2-hours of sheer viewing pleasure!
Are You Ready to Take That
Blast to the Past When Television was Worth Watching?
* You will see 80's Saturday Morning TV Broadcasts at it's finest!
* Broadcasts from the major TV Networks like: CBS, NBC, and ABC!
* Footage from Independent TV Stations from across the country!
Times Were Simpler, Happier Then...
The sensation is incredible. You'll feel young again, like back when anything was possible! Most people would pay thousands just to be able to experience those feelings again, if even for a few hours...
How much is it worth to recover a part of your precious past ... parts of your life that you may lose forever, without these joyful reminders.
So you’ll be happy to know that you can have each two-hour volume for less than $50. A virtual bargain!
Now For the Bad News...
As you’ve no doubt gathered, I am a serious collector. The reason these DVD’s are priced so reasonably is because I’m really not in this for the money. If so, they’d be double what I ask.
What I’m doing is allowing, for a short time, others to indulge in the same happy memories that I’ve lived myself. I’m not doing this for long. I suspect that I’ll be taking my collections off the market soon, and donating them to one of the pop culture museums who have contacted me. I just want a few more people to be able to enjoy them before I do this.
So don't miss out on this, and kick yourself later when they’re not around. Go ahead and select two or three of your favorites right now!
