Who remembers these little fellas?
These characters were created by Czechoslovakian immigrants Jan and Vlasta Dalibor.
The characters of pigs were chosen because the pig is seen as a symbol of good luck in the former Czechoslovakia. The puppets, who had only very limited movements, looked very alike. Pinky wore red clothes and Perky wore blue, but this distinction was little use on monochrome TV, so Perky often wore a hat
The puppets were seen our TV here in the UK 1957~1971, I for one, loved them them.
I have fond memories of sitting on a Pinky & Perky merry-go-round at Southend-on-Sea seafront in the 60's
