Community Coffee

From Muppet Wiki

Muppets, Inc. produced thirty-seven 10-second ads for Community Coffee, a Louisiana-based company, from 1959 to 1969. The ads featured Wilkins and Wontkins.

Following the success of the Wilkins Coffee commercials in the Washington, D.C. market, Jim Henson sold the concept to coffee companies in other local markets around the US. In addition to Community, clients included La Touraine Coffee, Nash's Coffee, Martinson Coffee and Donovan Coffee Company. The same ads were reshot, with the only difference being the name of the coffee company.
