The advertising world lost another one of it's icons this week, when veteran actor House Peters, Jr. passed away at the age of 92. Peters acted for almost 35 years, often starring in Westerns with the likes of Roy Rogers and Gene Autry. Before you ask - no, he was not the Marlboro Man....
Back in the old days of television, the characters on commercials weren't cartoons, they were actual people, although his did eventually go that way. Guess yet? Here's another clue - nearly everyone has used his product... Last clue - I'm not sure if wore the earring in the commercials....Here you go.
Yep, he was the first one..... Bye, House !!
