Description:

Here is a later commercial for Empire Carpets. Not too much longer and he would morph into an animated CGI character to remain ageless for all eternity. :-) This aired on local Chicago TV Saturday, January 21st 1995. (All Copyrights Acknowledged)

Now that's the ending that I remember! I was also a fan of the show that DearbornPlaza mentioned (which was actually called "Illinois's Luckiest", if my memory serves me correctly), and was on from 6:30 PM - 7:00 PM (I think it was on during Saturday nights) - it was renamed to something else later, and then ended.

Yeah, it probably is. I was just reviewing a disc from 1995 and found this, and it made me wonder when the last commercial was made with the Empire Carpet man in person instead of just a voiceover.

As a fan of the show "IL Instant Riches," I have two tapes from fall '96. Empire Man in these commericals actually showed him in person. I'd guess some time in the late 90s, he started v/o's.

I've seen this commercial many times during "Eyewitness News" where they still showing the Empire commercials with the 800 number. According to this commercial, this was years before they are using the 800 number and it could be shown all over the place. The jingle should be "312-588-2300 EMPIRE!".

I noticed that the Current empire animation was used in 2003 during the Guberatorial Recall in Califronia. and it was during Channel 7 News here in San Francisco.
