“Every three days a brand new Holiday Inn opens up.”

Here’s two great spots from 1970 for your Sunday. We begin with an (over?)eager manager on the opening day of a new Holiday Inn. After that, a Skittle-Bowl championship from Aurora.

Both commercials aired 45 years ago, in November of 1970.

Holiday Inn “Warm Welcome’ Commercial, 1970

Skittle-Bowl ‘Championship’ Commercial, 1970
