Did you know it's the Same Lion, as in the MGM Logo? :D

THANK YOU SO MUCH for this! Where the heck did you get it?! I've been looking for this one for about 50 yrs ha. Growing up in The Big City myself, as a little boy I always hoped I'd see a lion when I was in the subway with my parents. Seriously, I remembered this commercial years later when I started investing. I am sure it influenced my attitude about money.

yes, the extras were paid twice the normal rate to compensate for the extra risk.

The office building the lion enters at the end of the commercial is 2 Broadway at Bowling Green. The older building across the street is the old US Customs House.

Glad you enjoyed it! :)
