the nylon Luger

Does anyone besides me remember a TV commercial for women`s nylons involving a Luger?

The TV ad dates from the late 1960`s , and it was to show how run resistant these nylons were. The test involved shooting a hole into the nylons with a Luger (yes. a Luger four inch barrel model) and then pulling on the nylons to show they would not run. As I recall, the commercial was in black and white, and I do not remember the brand of nylons.

Surely, this would not be politically correct now.
