I'm a sucker for cute and vintage things...


so when something is both adorable and old I'm pretty happy.

This is a Mary Blair Meadow Gold commercial made in the 1950's. It uses the characters from an American children's book I never heard of called, “I Can Fly” by Ruth Krauss with illustrations by Mary Blair.

I love such commercials and I'm left pondering why they all have the product with the glowing effect inserted in the middle. To me it seems like the product (in this case ice cream) was delivered by aliens and is glowing in all it radiation glory. I hope you like it.
