Two Walking Bacon Strip Puppets - MCDONALD’S COMMERCIALS (1970s)


Two walking bacon strips puppets from a McDonald’s commercials of the 1970’s. Each puppet consists of two foam latex strips of bacon that are hand-painted in shades of red and pink and joined at the top with an internal metal armature. One set of bacon strips is in a walking motion, the other is standing upright. While the latex is in good condition overall for its age, modifying the position of the legs would likely cause cracking to the foam latex. Small cracks and imperfections in the painted surface are consistent with the medium.

These puppets are thought to appear in a 1970s McDonald’s advertising campaign with other anthropomorphic stop-motion foods.

Dimensions: 9” x 3 ½” (22 cm x 9 cm)
