Commercial

Can someone add more trivia about their commercials? They had one commercial about the "Crocker Spaniel" - It was very cute. It was very popular back in the day.

Logo

I was wondering if anyone had a picture of the old logo for Crocker. It seems to me it looked a whole lot like the Chase logo which is why I came to this article. Obviously since it was absorbed by Wells Fargo, a Chase competitor, I'm sure the logo similarity is just a coincidence. I response to the post above, I seem to remember that they had a commercial emphasising how the individual customer was important to the bank, it showed a man walking into a branch and announcing loudly "ok everybody, get to work!" It became a very popular saying, along the lines of the famous burger slogan "wheres the beef?" 76.248.228.242 (talk) 06:42, 10 June 2009 (UTC) Sandy[reply]

I agree and have the same recollection. This is the only caputure of the Crocker logo I could find on-line; compare it to the Chase logo. They are similar, but the Crocker logo has six scalene triangle segments and the Chase logo has four trapezoid segments. Highspeed (talk) 03:40, 11 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
