The first performer at a Super Bowl halftime show was Carol Channing, at Tulane Stadium in 1970
Eh, kinda no.
Super Bowls 1-8 all included marching bands such as Grambling, Southern, Arizona, Texas, Michigan etc. as well as some high school bands.
But the first Super Bowl (at the time called the AFC-NFC Championship Game, retroactively now Super Bowl I) did feature Al Hirt in addition to other marching bands and such. And he was clearly considered as a performer, a star.

The Davy Crockett was a nuclear mortar
Not exactly. It was a short range weapon, considering the warhead. It was a recoilless smoothbore gun/launcher

I wonder what kind of nightmares that woman and her daughter lived with after Bundy was found out to be a serial killer.

Well, considering it's an ad from 1914 and nationwide only a little more than half the homes in the U.S. had electricity and probably many families still woke up at the crack of dawn-----------it seems logical.

The now long gone Frostop that was on the corner of Aycock and St. Claude in Arabi had booths just like that with the remote juke box selector.
Put in a quarter back in the 50's and get to choose 3 songs without leaving the table.

the ad's job is not to depict how dark reality is but to promote the idea of how sunny everything will be if people switch to kellog's
