Hasbro's Romper Room division served up Sherlock, a bloodhound your toddlers could ride, in 1974. YouTube commenters have noted that it sounds like actor-turned-game show host Larry Blyden (What's My Line?) doing the closing voice-over.
Apparently, the Sir Arthur Conan Doyle estate raised a fuss over the name, so Sherlock was rebooted four years later as Digger, whom we've previously profiled.
