a question for older members

this is not an oldies question, but one for those who had black and white TV's . does anyone remember a cigar commercial with a (beautiful) my recollection, woman dressed up like an OWL. I can't find it on youtube

Re: a question for older members

I think you are asking about the old White Owl cigar commercials

I thought for a minute you were going to ask about a song in a cigar commercial, remember "Hey big spender, spend a little "dime" with me."

 I was going to post that but I wasn’t sure how Lorne felt about this off topic thread.  

Edie was the widow of Ernie Kovacs.  Ernie advertised for one of his sponsors Dutch Masters.

I don't generally mind us straying off topic from time to time. The ad is from the oldies era, plus I'm just glad to see discussion happening here. Interesting article about the woman who appeared in the ads.
