1970s
Commercial for Stihl chainsaws; three chainsaws are on darkened pedestals; male voiceover: “If they held an Olympics for chainsaws, one saw would get off to the fastest start, run the smoothest, finish first! That saw would be a Stihl! (spotlight shines on Stihl chainsaw, which is on the first place pedestal) After all, more wood’s been cut with Stihl than with any other brand of chainsaw in the world! So, if you want a chainsaw that outperforms the competition, get your hands on a Stihl! (here, a man appears and engages the pull start, which starts the chainsaw engine) Every time it runs, it sets a new world record!”; animated shot of chainsaw cutting through a red board to spell out “Stihl”; voiceover: “pro saws, farm saws, home saws-more people use Stihl chainsaws than any saw in the world!”
