These are old estonian tv commercials, from the eighties

interesting thing for you might be that we had commercials in soviet time, but there wasnt any competition (?) and the ads were just telling you for example: buy juice / eat onion / new shoe polish has arrived /etc

that is indeed scary

(Feb 10 05, 16:54)harry egipt is the guy who made all the estonian tv commercials back in eighties. i've heard, that his still doing some commercials and his portfolio consist of old beta-tapes... but maybe its just a rumour.

interesting how ads can be considered as art as soon as they get old and the commercial context is no longer there.
- rabattski0
interesting point clerk. it's true for these. also if i see dutch or german ones from the same period. nostalgia maybe? i wonder if that will happen in 30 years with commercials which are running now.
