Looking at some of these commercials, I can't help but think Ron Popeil was ahead of his time!

Mr. Microphone, the only Ronco gizmo to be immortalized in an episode of The Simpsons.

I believe the ending v/o for Ronco's Ice Cream Machine was Al Parker (former WLS Chicago staff announcer) and the ending v/o for Ronco's Record Vaccum was former WFLD (Chicago) announcer Jim Barton.

I did some of the pocket fisherman infomercials on QVC for Ron Popeil. He was so enthusiastic. I was only 9 and 10 years old and apparently only made $20 a commercial. I ended up using the fishing pole as a toy for my cat haha

I remember that glass froster.I think ? I remember that ice cream maker? Now I do remember that miracle broom. And Mr Microphone. And the Mr Dentist too."OOOOOOH MYY LOOOOVE MY DARLIN'" The Pottery Wheel.I bought one of those Record Vacuumns and it never worked. I took it back and got another one and THAT ONE never worked. I got my money back. That was the year I got money for Christmas so I could get what I wanted. I was fifteen in 1978. What a gyp. That Record Vacumn

0:00 to 0:28 and 3:19 to 3:48, those commercials aired regularly on TV around the 1975 Christmas season. I thought they were SO cool, but now the commercials and the decor are just downright tacky. I thought it all looked so modern then and wanted those things, but this was the world of a 7 year old in 1975 and now all the furniture, decor, and contraptions look so tacky. And part 3 had the rhinestone and stud setter, salad spinner, and smokeless ashtray I remember from that same time frame around Christmas 1975.
