50's Ads for Classic films airing on TV

I have a fascination with Film and televisions relationship ,with how studios were initially skeptical of The box,to agreeing to show old movies and shorts.How King Kong was so popular it was shown two weeks in a row .How for many Wizard of Oz was a thanksgiving tradition .How Horror hosts introduced a generation to the Universal monsters .How saturday mornings introduced kids to the Looney Tunes ,etc .I think about it is how these TV airings that cemented these things into pop culture .So here are a handful of ads I found for classic films airing in the 50's

King Kong

Wizard of Oz

Dracula

Frankenstein

Looney Tunes
