In my next life, I want to be Ann-Margret. Now, please excuse me while I go out and buy a case of Canada Dry. Thanks to Bob & Dusty’s Whirl-A-Go-Go for spotting this wonderful commercial.

    Oooooh, look at this great color chart – for Motorola television consoles in 1956. Click directly on the photo to get to the flickr photostream of What Makes the Pie Shops Tick – who has some additional images of vintage Motorola’s straight from the 1956 catalog. But back to the color chart — I liked this in particular, because it provides a good reference for paint, stain and finish options for anything wood – furniture, cabinetry, even paneling. Thanks, Pie Shop!
