Description: Here's a commercial for Creative Mirror Designs, celebrating their 20th anniversary with a "spectacular" holiday sale on various mirror designs.
Starts off with a vintage clip of Pam the Creative Mirrors girl (and daughter of the owner) as a little girl, which was the first commercial they ever did (which you can see here in a longer form in this 1977 auction clip from WTTW Channel 11). The ad then segues to her, now all grown up, describing the various different mirror combinations to spruce up one's home, and highlighting the upcoming holidays. With brochure and phone number at the end.
"That was me, years ago. A lot has changed since then . . . "
This aired on local Chicago TV sometime in 1992 (Creative Mirrors' 20th anniversary - they started in 1972).

Reminiscent (to my observational eyes and ears, at least) of longtime Castro Convertibles' spokesperson Bernadette Castro - the daughter of the company's founder - for those living in the NYC area. She started out as a kid jumping up and down on their convertible mattresses, then folding the bed into a couch. Such old clips would frequently be seen on TV ads after she passed adulthood (and after a short-lived attempt at a teen singing career a la, say, Lesley Gore) as she described the wonders of the product she was selling (and continues to sell on places like QVC and in online ads seen on, say, YouTube, today, despite the last store closing some years back).
