green tub of setting lotion with small plastic mermaid in the bottom of the jar?

[FLYING SAUCER]

My Mum used to buy a tub of hair setting gel from our local chemist in the early 1970's with a small white plastic mermaid in the bottom of the contents. Being an inquisitive little devil I used to get in a mess trying to fish it out!

Anyone else recall that?

Yes, I remembered that stuff just now and searched for it on line and found your post, so I had to registered so I could reply.
My Auntie used to have it, but I remember the gel stuff being pink, (maybe there were different kinds). She would not let us have that mermaid until she got down to the bottom of the tub, and I had two sisters also waiting for a mermaid! I would love to see a picture of that stuff and I would still like one of the mermaids-we were facinated by it.
