Hub-Bubs Happy Hollow from Mattel (1975)
A note from the editor: Released in 1975 from Mattel, the Hub-Bubs Happy Hollow playset promised “a whole world of friendly folk” for young preschool-aged children. The playset encouraged imaginative play with seven animal figures, three buildings, and a mail truck.
