She arrives at a typical Australian service station in a sports car.

That waist! I'm surprised she doesn't split in half.

Attired for a casual country drive through Manly in 1959, she encounters a smarmy petrol jockey (John Sherwood) who insists she watch him melt two lumps of grease in a Sunbeam electric frypan (which fortunately was sitting nearby, with the grease in place.)

He even had the gall to address her as "Sabby". Don't you find it interesting how John assures us that they know each other, and Sabrina asks whether his grease trials were fair dinkum, yet they seem to exchange about 4 words between the time she arrives and the time he pulls out the frypan.

Click the pic to see the article from 'Pix' magazine of 9 May 1959 which describes the traffic chaos Sabrina caused during filming.

Her acting was superb as she watched the Caltex lump of grease stay firm and solid while the other brand became flaccid and limp.

You could tell she was convinced that Caltex grease was fair dinkum good stuff!

Enough prologue: enjoy the video of Sabrina's ad , and keep your eyes on those firm and solid lumps.

Extra information contibuted by David:

The ad was filmed entirely on location at the Caltex service station in the Sydney suburb of Manly.

Those who have seen the ad in full will know that there is no sound of Sabrina's car as it pulls up to the pumps, and this is voiced over by the alleged station owner.

This scene was voiced over because about 200 spotty herberts from nearby schools had heard Sabrina was coming to Manly, and were cheering so loud that the soundtrack could not be used.

Sabrina can be seen glancing off camera as she gets out of the car, momentarily distracted by the sound of straining trousers across the road.

More details of the trouser damage caused by Sabrina's ad can be found in the 'Pix' article of 1959.
