[78-L] Vintage commercials

I've played stuff like that on my show once in a while.  Back in the eighties we ran a bunch of tapes of Jack Benny shows from the thirties and heard a barrage of Jello ads and my kids started asking for Jello.  I'd better be sure the Feenamint ads are cut from the Gershwin shows before I play them for my wife.
 
One commercial - or series - I'd love to hear again were the crash test dummies of the late 1980s....especially the one where they did an opera in French...."oooch ma face!"
 
Anybody know where I can find those??

No he is not looking for anything specific, but I've since been steered toward some websites that have the commercials isolated so I've directed him to these. Thanks.
