PLOP PLOP, FIZZ FIZZ FROM SAMMY CLAUS

Found in a 1979 TV Guide is this Alka-Seltzer sweepstakes advertisement starring Sammy Davis Jr. as Sammy Claus.



Watch Sammy Claus settle an upset stomach in this television commercial from the same year.



Skip the milk and cookies!  On Christmas Eve, be sure to put out a Gin Martini and a pack of smokes for ol' Sammy Claus when he swings down your chimney!

Ol' Sam sure knows how to brighten anyone's holidays!

Wow! I'm a big fan of Sammy (I own most of his records from the 50s to the late 70s, as well as all three of his books), but I'd never seen this before!
