1967 AIRCHECKS WITH SLURPEE ADS

R

RadioDuffer

I need help. Been searching many years for the zany 7-Eleven slurpee radio commercials that aired 40 years ago this year. They included sounds of a kazoo. I have the ones from 1966 (I believe) that were on the back of the 45 rpm Dance the Slurp. I had them all on reel to reel tape but lost them 30 years ago in a fire. Time is running out for me. I wrote to 7-Eleven and they still have them on file, but will not release them due to needing new negotiations with the performers. Does anybody have any of them on a 1967 aircheck?
They aired April through August, I believe.
Please let me know. I will compensate you for whatever you need. Thanks.
 
I appreciate that lead, but Dale was unable to help. He doesn't recall those commercials at all,
but said he would keep an eye out for them. I have listened to countless airchecks from that
time period (mid May to August 1967) but have yet to hear a slurpee commercial. I lived in
Balt-Wash area and they were played several times an hour on WCAO. Unfortunately there are
no air-checks from WCAO available. I have to imagine other nearby stations on East Coast
also ran them.
If anybody has any leads for me, let me know. Thanks.
