The first television advertisement was broadcast in the United States at 14:29 on July 1, 1941, when the Bulova Watch Company paid $9 to New York City NBC affiliate WNBT (now WNBC) for a 20-second spot aired before a baseball game between the Brooklyn Dodgers and Philadelphia Phillies. It simply displayed a Bulova watch over a map of the U.S., with a voiceover of the company's slogan "America runs on Bulova time!"
The Independent Television Authority (ITA) was a body created by the Television Act 1954 to supervise the creation of "Independent Television" (ITV), the first commercial television network in the United Kingdom.
The first television commercial couldn't have been on British TV because they didn't get a commercial network until 13 years after the US did.
It was for toothpaste, sometime around the mid 50's
I think it may have been for toothpaste. I remember one with a song that went "You'll wonder where the yellow went, when you brush your teeth with Pepsodent." We had television for the coronation and commercial television followed a few years later.
