Tricky Micky Nixon wristwatch

Tricky Micky Nixon WristwatchesIn the early 70s there was character watch fad for political figures. I believe it began with Spiro Agnew, but Nixon was a favorite. Mel Blanc said in his autobiography that he had a Nixon watch where the eyes shifted back and forth as it ticked.

This is a Nixon parody of a Mickey Mouse watch. Cute idea.
