Hi! I found a longer version of one of the "Quaker Oat Squares" commercials with Jack Kelly's hearty voiceover:
Also, when I was at the grocery store the other day, I wondered if Quaker still made Oat Squares. I moseyed down the cereal aisle and there was the familiar blue box. Only now, the cereal is called "Quaker Oatmeal Squares".I bought a box and brought it home to the breakfast table:(Irish breakfast tea has long been my customary breakfast beverage, and it does fit right in with Mr. Kelly. ;)
I'd never had Quaker Oatmeal Squares before, so this was something new for me. They're just as JK described them: "...the rich, nutty taste of toasted whole grain oats with a hint of brown sugar...crunchy little squares that stay crunchy in milk and sure taste good!" :)

Welcome!
Welcome to The Tall Dark Stranger There, a fun and informative blog about that Maverick man, Jack Kelly! You'll find lots of rare photos in TDS. And that's not all--you'll also get in-depth info about the pictures and so much more. Plus, TDS is the exclusive showcase for the Kellection--an ever-expanding treasure trove of Jack Kelly memorabilia "kellected" by the author, La Bartista! So, spend some quality time with the tall, dark stranger here--and don't forget to invite your amigos, too! :)
One thing I respectfully ask, however: If sharing TDS, PLEASE share a link to (http://jackkellytribute.blogspot.com) or to a complete specific post rather than copying/pasting or hotlinking to individual images to share on sites such as Facebook. I'm aware that images from this blog have been copied, altered, and posted elsewhere. I've even seen videos with photos nicked from TDS. It saddens me when TDS is treatedas just a convenient source for "Throwback Thursday" pictures after I've worked so hard to research and write it. I'm all for "sharing"; however, the photos on TDS are meant to enhance the text and vice-versa. I've tried very diligently to discover the factual story behind each image. So, when one of these photos is copied and plopped down on another site without linking back to TDS, people may not get the whole "picture". Thank you for your consideration. :)
