 Donald Duck and Hudson Commercial for 55
Buying a Hudson In 1955 Hudson used Donald Duck to advertise the new car lineup. The part with Donald is rather confusing but the stuff with the car is ok.

What's so confusing about Donald Duck? Oh, you probably didn't know that as his career developed, so did his place in the pecking order of the film industry. After making millions, he became a big stock holder in Hudson and owned several models of their cars. His favorite was a Broadway Blue 1953 Hornet. He said that car was just ducky and he would fly south in it every winter. But after Hudson merged with the Nashinator Corp, he sold his stock and went through various models of Packard and Cadillac. Rumor has it that while driving home from a party late one night, his Cadillac Coop deVille went afowl and he quacked up. Years later when asked about this accident, he stated, "That never would have happended if I were driving a car with a low center of gravity and center point steering, like that in my old Hudson Hornet."
