Subject: Unimaginative
Unimaginative commercial on using an early form of a wireless RCA TV remote control

Subject: We'll even throw in the sword swallower too!
Pretty basic commercial here with a saleman showing a pretty lady a wireless (in 1959!!) remote control one could use for their TV. Small and somewhat clunky, from what it looks like (there is no sound) you could control the channel, brightness and (I'm guessing) volume. Love the sword swallowing footage they used on the "TV"
