Armourcote II



Nearly every line from the copy on this ad is etched in my brain forevermore. The "Now how much would you pay" thing is still something I say (all too often, I fear). I can't say if Armourcote II was any good, but this commercial and its like ran all the time on WGN at all hours... and I'd watch at all hours unless there was a Cubs game. I watched Dick VanDyke, Leave it to Beaver, the Munsters, Twilight Zone, you name it. I could wile away the summer in front of the boob tube, only occasionally turned out into the harsh cruel outdoors by my sadistic parents. I think they liked having me around, especially when my sisters discovered friends and other useless frivolities.
