Here's a TV commercial filmed in San Francisco, California featuring DOZENS of brand new Oldsmobiles. The double-deck Embarcadero Freeway was hated by locals because it blocked classic city views. The freeway was severely damaged in the 1989 earthquake and subsequently torn down to the delight of San Franciscans.

You'll be watching the commercial on a 1959 Philco Predicta television set, just like viewers might have seen it in 1959.
