1991 Hallmark Cards "100th Birthday Surprise" commercial

[Hawkee]

At first we know Hallmark as a top greeting card company second to American Greetings but a second thing few people know about Hallmark Cards is their touching and wonderful commercials. In 1991 Hallmark debuted an amazing commercial that starts with a family setting up for a birthday party for the woman's mother. While the rest of the family is getting everything ready a car driving an elderly couple is heading to the house and the kids tell the woman that her daughter is planning a very special party and a surprise. Hours later they arrive at the house and the whole family yells "Surprise" and then the grandaughter hands her grandmother a card and says "Happy 100th Birthday Grandma" and the commercial ends with a wonderful party. You know when you look at Hallmark commercials today they don't have great commercials like this one and Hallmark should design their commercials today like this one
