Since he first appeared in The HUCKLEBERRY
HOUND Show back in the late '50s, YOGI BEAR
has been present on shop shelves in some form of mer-
chandise in every decade right up to the present. That's
quite an achievement when you think about it. I now have
more items of '60s merchandise than I had back then, and
I'm always on the lookout to add to my collection. Three
items I had in the '60s yet elude me, those being a pair
of Yogi slippers, a Hallowe'en mask, and an inflatable
'Punch' Yogi. Maybe one day, eh?
In the meantime, here's a couple of items I acquired
only recently - a Yogi toothbrush holder from the '60s,
and a Yogi bubble bath from the mid-'90s. That bear's
going to take over the world someday - trust me.
