Jim is sporting the Brylcreem bounce. (Brylcreem commercial, October 1972)

“A little dab of Brylcreem on your hair gives you the Brylcreem bounce.”

Here’s two fun spots from the fall of 1972. The first, a Brylcreem commercial from October ’72, features a fellow called Jim and a Beach Boys-style jingle. Does anyone still use Brylcreem? It first appeared in the 1920s and is still available today.

After that, enjoy an Alka-Seltzer spot from November ’72 with a weekly poker game theme.
