I believe that was the general idea when this ad first appeared around Christmas 1970, ‘franz’. Because “Love Story” was THE most successful romantic movie of the year, Love Cosmetics decided to use “mirror images” of Ali and Ryan [but not TOO close to the real ones] to sell “Eau Du Love”. Besides producing two Saturday morning cartoon series in the 1970-’71 season, H-B also dabbled in animated commercials for several clients as well…
The Love Cosmetics ad I especially remember was the one with Marvin Kaplan (Choo-Choo from “Top Cat”, speaking of Hanna-Barbera) reciting a poem as the camera pans over a field of flowers in the middle of which a young woman is standing, after which a slow close-up of the woman is shown.
Wow! That’s good!
It’s just what I’ve always wanted!
What is it?
Insincere much?
Nice commercial.
I didn’t know Hanna-Barbera did a Love’s cosmetics commercials 1969-early 1970’s.
I’m looking for the kiddie-porn one for Love’s Baby Soft of the teenage hooker sucking on an all-day sucker. Seriously.
the characters looks like animated versions of ali mcgraw and ryan o’neal from “love story”
Wish they’d bring back that classic fragrance!
Great memories and a GREAT fragrance!!!! Please help try to bring it back…

This is great animation. Is this rotoscoped?
If only their shows had been done to this standard.

Eau de Love, I loved it and I would love to smell it again!!!
We all wished.

This is like a primitive version of mo-cap. Beautifully done.
