70s Spots: Trailways Bus (Claude Akins) & Speed Stick (1976)

Mr. Akins, that’s a Greyhound. Hello? Mr. Akins?

“Until you test-ride a Trailways – you’ll never know what the best bus is.”

Here’s Claude “Sheriff Lobo” Akins for Trailways bus lines. When this man speaks, you can’t help but pay attention.

After Mr. Akins, we have a Mennen Speed Stick deodorant commercial. Both commercials aired in January of 1976 (and were likely produced in late ’75). Roll on!
