Time Machine?

Check out this link, but only if you have some time on your hands. I don't even know what YTTM stands for in this context (in web slang it usually stands for, "you talkin' to me"). Regardless, this is a fun way to take a peek back in time.

This will let you view video and audio footage (in many different forms) going back to 1860. Flip the toggle switches on the right to get different types of content. And be sure to click on a year more than once to see multiple videos from that year.

I have only had time to catch a few. Two of the standouts were a 1960 JFK political ad and a 1972 Godfather movie trailer. But I'm sure that I've only scratched the surface.
