Toonfomercial: A warning about drugs (1970)

 I don't think Hans Christian Andersen ever intended for The Emperor's New Clothes to be used as an analogy involving drug use, but here it is, in this 1970 PSA, which looks like Filmation was commissoned to produce. The music sounds familiar, and the voices include Howard Morris and Jane Webb.


I have known people who've used drugs dating back to my youth, and I've never understood the appeal, even now, when marijuana has been legalized mostly for medicinal use.
