Definitely remember the Jell-O and Coppertone commercials. Yes, I am old(er)! Still eat Jell-O but do not sunbathe!

To encourage a beautiful tan - to encourage your skin to burn just a little bit!
ReplyDeleteI wonder when the Trix Rabbit first appeared?
I like your particular brand of creativity, Jeremy.
ReplyDeleteThese retro ads are brilliant! The Coppertone girl was world-famous, I think... I know I saw her on billboards in Mexico, though it was perhaps a slightly more modern version ;) The "When I eat jell-o I wish I were..." made me laugh... Some copywriter somewhere was really not thinking this through :D
ReplyDeleteLove the series, Jeremy. I'll be back, often. Thanks for the visit over at Life In Dogs — and kudos to you for adopting rescues! The world needs more people like you and your family :)
That Coppertone ad campaign lasted many years. Fun memory and approach. Glenda from

These were just great Jeremy.

Really cool ads!
ReplyDeleteI haven't watched any of these, but they do seem loveable enough and I can see how they would evoke childhood memories! :) Nice theme!

I remember that cute little coppetone tan ad. I was a kid when it was out, but I remember seeing it.
ReplyDeleteCoppertone rings a bell, the others not so much! LOL
ReplyDeleteThat Coopertone ad is so wonderfully iconic. Those Jello ads are just strange. LOL great find Jeremy.
ReplyDeleteI wonder if it worked. Love the Jello ads.
ReplyDeleteLove the Jello ads! They're hilarious. Copywriting at its best. Ha! Funny how the ad agency was able to sell that concept to the Jello folks...
ReplyDeleteLove the Coppertone ad. So classic.

I just stopped by for the trip down memory lane and reflecting as my daughter looks to launch her career in marketing, whether it was easier or harder back as an Advertising Exec back in the day?! Hard to tell don't you think?!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you for your buttons on the AtoZ challenge which I am enjoying. At Little Wandering Wren we're going on a virtual road trip round my home state of Victoria, Australia. One of the ladies has said where are all the men? So here's an invite you can't refuse :) Today I have 20+ ladies from all over the world heading off in a Mini car on a yoga retreat to a place starting with D! All welcome?!!!

My aunt made lime Jello with shredded carrots in it once, and it was unusually good.
ReplyDeleteI remember the Coppertone ad so well and thought it was stupid then. I never wanted to be that tanned but never gave it a second thought that her butt was showing. People need to loosen up in North America. I never liked jello so I would be the mule and the kids are just freaky
ReplyDeletethat's interesting
ReplyDeleteThe Coppertone ad is cute and I remember it well, but wonder if Coppertone could get away with that ad in today's society?
ReplyDeleteI definitely remember that Coppertone Ad. Cute!
