First of all, I knew that Singer made sewing machines, but had no idea they made record players! That’s only one of the many things that charmed the pants off me about this 1967 Christmas infomercial for Singer. The commercial looks gorgeous, the special effects are adorable, and… I’m not exactly sure what that actor is doing there, but he looks like he may be high. Anyhoo, he’s great, too!

(I WANT THAT SINGER TELEVISION, BTW!!)

Bang bang, choo-choo train, let me see you shake that thang. Wm. Steven Humphrey is the editor-in-chief of the Portland Mercury and has held the job since 2000. (So don’t get any funny ideas.)
