That RCA color T.V. Commercial had me going . Mom worked at a [big] TV station in St.Louis. When she finally bought a Color TV, it was an RCA . It wasn’t long before we were having problems with it. One of the Technicians [ who was sweet on mom] would come to fix it . Almost every time, he’d exclaim , “ why did you have to get an RCA❓ they are junk. Should have gotten a Zenith .” True. We were always having trouble with it. There’s another TV brand: Curtis-Mathis. The spokesman for the company was Frank “Junior “Coghlin, an excellent and very popular actor from the early 1920’s to 1941, and is best known for the Serial, “Captain Marvel “ , where he played Billy Batson. There is still one of his commercials on KZfaq. Curtis-Mathis. The most expensive television in America, and darn well worth it! 📻😁

There was a Curtis-Mathis plant about 30 minutes from our small town in East Texas. When I was a kid in the 1960s, several friends parents worked there.

Mick Sydney Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea. I remember in the navy watching that with some guys that were crew members of a submarine.

Hi Fred, may I inquire, where you found the national anthem part.. There has been video going around - showing that very piece slowed down. And in this one you can see it flash ( at .25 speed can't catch but glimpses ) subliminals to trust the govt.. & rebellion is not permitted. lol - as words change-

I think I just pulled it off KZfaq. But what you're saying is interesting and scary. I'll have to slow it down and check out myself.

I slowed it down to .15 and the messages are clearly there. Gave me chills. True, it might have been faked. But given the tenor of the times and the fact that subliminal messages had been tried earlier on TV by the government, I'm not surprised.
