'Take tea and see!'


I love this old tea commercial. It's not advertising a brand, it's just selling tea in general. Ahhhh.

  1. wow... that's a slow commercial... you could fit 3 of today's commercials in the same amount of time.. advertising has certainly improved since the 1950's (?)
    ... the words stuck all through the years however, those words popped into my head this morning... take tea and see... I could sworn it was an ad byline for Lipton tea
