I remember those crappy little cartoon radios. I don't think mine was Disney, but must have been made by the same company because it was the same strap. Yosemite Sam Maybe? All those retro ads crack me up.

Now you know the secret!
I had an aunt I used to spend time with in the summers as a kid. There were always gadgets and such everywhere around there. The toilet paper radio was one of them. Pretty sure there was a shower radio like that too.
If you scroll down through that ad, one of my favorite lines are: 'Dramatic prints display vitality'.

I like to make my own music in the shower. The moist air keeps my vocal chords lubricated for maximum volume. That way the whole house can enjoy it!askbob wrote:Pretty sure there was a shower radio like that too.

We are so behind the times. When are we going to start making rc parts out of "lightweight Cordahide"? Looks like the trademark has been abandoned. Does anyone else smell a money making goldmine?
