Mr Squeaky Clean

Mr Squeaky Clean (1976-2023) was a legendary household cleaning mascot who served as the face of Sparkle-Bright Dish Soap for nearly five decades. Known for his distinctive crystalline body structure and perpetually bubbling personality, he became an icon of the Golden Age of Product Personification.

Early Career

Born in a Madison Avenue Marketing Lab, Mr Squeaky Clean was initially designed as a simple soap bubble character by Professor Suds Wellington, a pioneer in cleaning product animation. His characteristic high-pitched voice and catchphrase "Let's make memories sparkle!" quickly captured public attention.

Rise to Fame

During the Great Kitchen Renaissance of the 1980s, Mr Squeaky Clean became the most recognized cleaning product mascot, surpassing even Lady Lysol Luminous in popularity. His weekly television show, "The Squeaky Clean Hour," taught millions of children about proper dishwashing techniques through musical numbers and comedy sketches.

Controversy and Advocacy

In 2020, Mr Squeaky Clean became the center of controversy when the Emotional Objects Rights Movement revealed his grueling work schedule. Despite being filmed in over 3,000 commercials, he had never received vacation time or proper bubble maintenance. This revelation led to the establishment of the Fair Treatment of Animated Products Act.

Following his retirement in 2023, Mr Squeaky Clean established the Clean Character Foundation, dedicated to supporting retired cleaning mascots. His autobiography, "Bubbles and Troubles: My Life in Suds," became a bestseller among anthropomorphic literature.

Personal Life

Despite his public persona, Mr Squeaky Clean was known to be quite reserved in private. He shared a home with his long-time companion, Miss Sponge Worthy, and their adopted soap bar children.
