| Description: | 1950s B/W Raid insecticide animated commercial--"a new discovery from Johnson Wax". Great kitsch animation of dead and dying insects. Flies, Mosquitoes, Ants, spraying Raid on roses & tomato plants. Animated insects of all sorts, in all locations of a house (a kitchen, a drawer) stand alert in fear of a RAID can - in classic superhero form with muscular arms and a square head. The RAID man takes off his cap, presses the button on his head and goes after the insects. HE sprays a cloud where the words " Flies, Mosquitoes, Roaches, Ants... all kinds of bugs indoors" appear. MS woman casually spraying RAID all over her rose bushes. CU can of RAID in her hand. She keeps spraying. Sprays tree. CU can "RAID house and garden bug killer". | |
