Somebody from Argentina posted an Eveready batteries commercial recently; it had the wrong aspect ratio, which I corrected. It is obviously a pan regional commercial since it was filmed in different part of the world.
It is one of the scarce pan regional commercials that actually works anywhere in the world... except that, although I don't when it was produced, it came 30 late. In Argentina, there have been no Eveready batteries since at least 1986, when the Energizer alkaline batteries finally replaced the zinc carbon ones of the old brand (which, by the way, had spoiled many devices, games and radios for a long time by then). Although many of the featured devices seems to big nowadays.
Still, it is a fascinanting commercial that it is only available in English:
