Who ever said that "PIGS" liked to roll around in the mud? This infamous "PIG" (said with tongue in cheek) is washing off the stinky and/or slimey mud from his tough-as-nails carcass, in this early 1960's TV commercial for Soaky bathtub toys.

This commercial seems to show a few unusual things in the famous police detective's private life. Dick Tracy likes to take a bath while playing with a Dick Tracy toy soaky, and he also likes using his two-way wrist TV in the tub (I will repeat myself - it is a 2-way wrist TV) The tough guy policeman is covered with soap suds while singing a song to a friend, via his wrist TV device.  

Enjoy the fun example of sixties advertising.





Even tho TV TOY MEMORIES  does not have a Dick Tracy soaky toy, this fine antique toy company does have a soaky toy from the classic movie, Nightmare Before Christmas. They also have a Mr. Magoo soaky for sale.
