I added 19 more ads today, all from November 1985. There's one addition to the News/Special Reports page for a channel 11 ad for a series of reports by Amy Marsalis on eating disorders. On the Channel 24 page is an ad for The Hugga Bunch special, an Hour Magazine ad with Gary Collins and two PM Magazine ads, one with Joan Collins, Victoria Principal and Suzanne Somers. On the PBS page are two channel 30 ads, one for a tribute to The Statue of Liberty and the other for Rock School. There are eight more ads on the channel 36 page. One is an ad for At the Movies (now on 36) and the rest are for movies shown at 9PM including "The Sword and the Sorcerer," "Lone Wolf McQuade," "Mad Max" and "Smokey and the Bandit." There are two ads for daytime soaps as well. On the ABC page is one for General Hospital and on the NBC page is one for Days of Our Lives. There are also two additions to the Other Vintage Ads Page. One is from The House of Seagram which questions the three networks rejecting an ad about driving under the influence and the other is a Hills ad for Cabbage Patch Kids Accessories. Has it really been that long since The Cabbage Patch Kids were hot? More ads from November and December 1985 are coming...
