Master 109 - Tape 2 Late 1950s TV commercial for Coco Wheats hot breakfast cereal: Rather creepy animation of a cartoon character named Mr. Magic, who enjoys using more macabre magic tricks like spinning his head until the neck looks like a pretzel. And yet he also enjoys serving a hot and hearty breakfast of Coco Wheats, much to the delight of a cartoon boy. Product shot of a cup of hot chocolate (cocoa), a slice of chocolate cake and chocolate pie as Coco Wheat boxes appear behind them (intended to show what Coco Wheats hot cereal tastes like). Beware that cloyingly catchy jingle.
