The '''Southern Colonel''' is a dapper, stereotypical Southern gentleman who served as the spokesman for Southern Bread in a series of sixteen TV commercials produced between 1965 and 1966. In each commercial, the Southern Colonel would say "I’d do anything for Southern Bread..." and would then proceed to perform an extreme act, such as jumping out of a window, breaking the sound barrier, or going to Yankee Stadium.

*The Southern Bread commercials with the Colonel were released without copyright notices.
*Southern Bread is a long-defunct brand, and as such does not have a trademark.
