“The PLAY-DOH brand is proud to celebrate over 50 years of colorful, creative play. Since it was first introduced in 1956, PLAY-DOH modeling compound has become a classic and beloved toy, used in homes and schools around the world by children of all ages. In 1956 PLAY-DOH Brand modeling compound, a non-toxic reusable modeling compound developed by Rainbow Crafts in Cincinnati, is demonstrated and sold in the toy department of Woodward & Lothrop Department Store in Washington, D.C. PLAY-DOH compound is available only in one color and size, an off-white, 1.5-pound can. One year earlier, it was introduced to schools, kindergartens and nursery schools. Then in 1957 three new colors join the PLAY-DOH line – yellow, red and blue – and the three-can pack is introduced. Early TV advertising features Miss Frances on Ding Dong School and Captain Kangaroo. In 1972, PLAY-DOH compound records production of the 500,000,000th can. In 1991, PLAY-DOH compound joins Hasbro, Inc. as part of the Playskool line, when Hasbro purchased the Tonka Corporation and its Kenner and Parker Brothers divisions. In 2000, the PLAY-DOH Colorful Campaign collects more than 100,000 votes to determine the country’s favorite PLAY-DOH compound colors. Rose Red, Purple Paradise, Blue Lagoon and Garden Green win as favorites. In 2006, PLAY-DOH compound turns 50 years young. To mark the milestone, Hasbro fittingly introduces the PLAY-DOH BIRTHDAY BUCKET and the PLAY-DOH 50 PACK of colors that includes six new super pastel colors. In addition, the popular PLAY-DOH FUZZY PUMPER BARBER & BEAUTY SHOP playset returns as the FUZZY.” See the rest »
