There was once a popular child's toy.....

(1/1)

franksolich:
This was probably before my time, and I saw a picture of it in some history book, or it could've dated from my earliest childhood memories.

The thing was shaped, roughly, like a bowling-pin and painted, roughly, to resemble a human, or a clown, or something.

Every time one knocked it over, it came right back up; it wouldn't stay down.

Anybody have any idea?  Thanks!

franksolich:
Well, damn.

After drinking a cup of coffee in the middle of the night, like Saul on the road to Damascus, it came to me, and google images verified it.

"Weeble Wooble."

Sorry for the bother.

DumbAss Tanker:
'Weebles wobble but they don't fall down.'  I remember that bit of the ad jingle from my childhood!

 :cheersmate:

I still think of weebles when the primitives start talking the Bolshie 'To the barricades!' gasbaggery.

Had one, but in the 60's.
