Mr Bubble

1960s

Playtex

It's the sixties, a young boy is bathing with Mr. Bubble, a playful fellow made entirely of bubbles? The child and bubble character get increasingly caught up in the joys of bathtime; splashing, screaming and jumping around. Suddenly a loud knock on the door brings the fun to a screeching halt. "Is there someone in there with you?" A mother's voice inquires. "Only me and Mr. Bubble, Mom!" The boy quickly replies. Mr. Bubble and the kid exchange knowing glances.
Mr. Bubble was but one of the many soldiers in the soap war. They all fought for a common cause: To make bathtime more fun! Many bubble baths came and went during those turbulent times. To its credit, Mr. Bubble is still with us, although the golden days of novelty soaps have long since past.
