Where can I find a Forest Service PSA commercial where a beautiful lady tells you that "only you can prevent forest fires" before she pulls off her face to reveal Smokey Bear?

Its Joanna Cassidy--Zhora from Blade Runner. (This predates Blade Runner, though.)

I don't know if I've seen that since I was a kid.

I have to say there's a real uncanny valley quality to the ending.

Wikipedia describes it as "famous but unsettling".

Wasn't that ad remade remade recently? I can't shake the feeling I've seen a newer version on television.
