Where can I watch TV commercials from the 80s and/or 90s?
Typing “commercial ads 1980s” into Google gave me this. It looks pretty entertaining to me, anyway.
I couldn’t immediately find anything for the 1990s…
Step 1: Get a television.
Step 2: Get a time machine.
Step 3: ???
Step 4: Profit!
Don’t know how far back it goes, but I came across the AdLand website not too long ago looking for a particular IBM commercial. There’s a subscription fee, but it might be worth it.
If you’re near New York of L.A., there’s a wealth of material at the Museum of Television and Radio. Plus, the one in New York is next door to 21, so you can grab a $30 hamburger for lunch.
