Do you or anybody else know if perhaps somebody, like the BMIHT, has a
videocassette NTSC with *all* of the MG TV commercials from the past?
I've seen the "right" version of the parachute commercial, but not the
"wrong". I've never heard of or seen that Midget commercial. Sounds
neat! Older commercials fascinate me! (I wasn't old enough, even in
1980, to really pay attention to car commercials!)
BTW- What network/show did you see that commercial on?
