Is it just me or were these things absolutely everywhere in the 1970s. I’m not sure if I had one or just all my friends did but putting that bannana in that mouth, it was just impossible not to do.

Guilty! I had one and there is a photo of me at probably 4 years old with that banana in my mouth.
Talk about a flashback!
That damn monkey always freaked me out!
I got one for my first birthday in 1969. I named him "Bumby" (my one year old pronunciation of monkey). Still have him to this day.
