A list of many of the “Real Men of Genius” and “Real American Heroes” commercials. Most were radio commercials but some were made for TV. Links are to the best versions I was able to find.

There are quite a few parodies and regional commercials that were performed live on local radio stations and featured favorite topics of the localities. This list focuses on the national commercials and the columns are sortable.
