As long as we're speculating:

I think this must be a promo piece rather than a commercial. The announcer is trying to be forceful, but is still just reading the text - something intended for the public should have had an announcer that came across as genuinely agog at the features. Also, the announcer doesn't have the "neutral midwest accent" typically looked for in commercial productions. Of course, commercials progressed from basic hard sell to more sophisticated soft sell over the years, so maybe... but it's just too long unless it played as the major or only sponsor for a special sponsored by RCA.
