I recognised this mouse on this display I saw online! Although its not mentioned on the card it's clearly Topo Gigio next to the tiger [is that a TV tiger too?]
Last Christmas, I used exactly one of these key ring Topos to finish my Century 21 Toys Topo Gigio Ice Cream Van. It became Mrs' Gigio who serves the ice cream at the back.
Did you have any key rings readers?
Do you remember Topo Gigio? Was there a famous mouse when you were a kid?
My famous childhood mouse was Motormouse, as in Motormouse and Autocat.
ReplyDeleteChickoree, Autocat. Not sure of the spelling.
DeleteAutocar and Motormouse were just cool on the telly Mish. I may have had a book too.
DeleteI had one of those Tiger key rings, but I have no idea if he was a TV character. Either 1960s or 1970s.
ReplyDeleteMice - there were Pixie and Dixie (and Mr Jinks the cat), Mighty Mouse, Jerry from Tom and Jerry, plus Mickey Mouse and the team.
Tom and Jerry were brilliant Paul. Watched it every week back then, maybe every day as it was a TV filler before the News I think.
DeleteLooks like the Kellogg's mascot Tony the Tiger
ReplyDeleteI agree Arto. It's grrrrrrrrrreat!
DeleteI think Paul covered most of the bases for my childhood cat favs, but leave us not forget the coolest cat of all Top Cat! And as they say: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4rrXR6n0RTY
ReplyDeleteAll his friends get to call him TC!
