Tiny Ding Dong!

History Daily

There are so many unfortunate things about this toy. First of all, it’s named “Tiny Ding-Dong!” which is already an implication of a boy’s private part. Secondly, it has a giant elephant standing behind it, just waiting for its ding dong to be pulled. Seriously though, this Fisher-Price toy didn’t exactly put malice into it when it was created back in the 1940s. Tiny was the name of the elephant, but what isn’t exactly clear is what “ding-dong” is referring to. We will just assume they mean the bell that Tiny is pulling, but if anyone else gets the wrong idea, you really can’t blame them.
