70s Spots: Toys ‘R’ Us & Long John Silver’s (1978)

A perfectly normal sight in the Seventies. Do not adjust your sets.

“When you think of toys – think of Toys ‘R’ Us!”

We’re celebrating the 40th anniversary of 1978 this year – so, let’s get off to a hearty start with a pair of vintage commercials.

First, a good find for Toys “R” Us featuring the entire Giraffe family dancing across America. The spot aired in November of 1978. Second, a spot for Long John Silver’s restaurant from December of ’78.
