70s Commercials: Right Guard ‘Hi, Guy!’ & Wisk ‘Ring Around The Collar!’ (1978)

Two spots from 1978 and two from 1977 on deck today. From ’78, you’ll find the great Chuck McCann in one of his long-running “Hi, guy!” commercials for Right Guard. Next, it’s a classic, and somewhat absurd, “Ring around the collar!” spot from Wisk laundry detergent.

From 1977, we have commercials for Kentucky Fried Chicken and Nescafé coffee. Let the memories flow.
