"New to iTunes are the notable television commercials from the Duke University libraries. These ads were digitized from the original 16mm preservation film prints in 2009, as part of the AdViews collection."
As if I needed help wasting time. But it is entertaining to scan through the commercials they have listed in iTunes. They range from food to toys to automobile ads. They digitized 16mm prints of the commercials from various collections around the country, and for each ad, they give information about the ad agency that created it and the collection it was copied from, including links to each.
