TJR TOONS - The Flintstones Winston Cigarette Commercials + History

A long time ago the creators of Tom and Jerry were tasked with creating the Flintstones, a modern stone age family. After being turned down by most of the major networks, they also got two sponsors to pay for the show, one was a vitamin company, the other, Winston cigarettes.

The Flintstones were obligated to promote their sponsors of course, that's why there are Flintstone vitamin commercials that have survive until today and why there are also commercials showing Fred, Wilma, Betty and Barney hocking what we know now, without a doubt causes cancer... cigarettes. They were marketed to the whole family.

These commercials were only commercially released in the digital age once after their initial broadcast schedule, on laserdisc in the late 1990's. They're are presented here in there entirety, uncut and uncensored.
