Winky Dink Interactive Media

Why back in the day, we too had interactive media. It was called Winky Dink, and you drew on your TV screen. Well, not directly on the screen. Rather, you took the transparent plastic sheet from your Winky Dink kit and put in on the screen and drew on that.

What I didn't know was that Winky was voiced by Mae Questel, who also voiced Betty Boop.

Here's a little piece at Print Magazine about Winky Dink. H/t Michael Sporn.
