Not local commercials, but I have a hour long + DVD of vintage sports commercials (some of you may own it/have seen it), including:

Mickey Mantle for Post Cereal baseball cards, Karo, and Florida Orange Juice
Hank Aaron for Wheaties
Willie Mays for Gillette
Yogi Berra for Camel and Puss N Boots
Roberto Clemente for Eastern Airlines
Casey Stengel for Tabby Cat Food
Bobby Hull with a young Brett Hull for Log Cabin Syrup
plus more

Not local but the greatest ads with stars in them are the Miller Lite beer commercials.
