“You must be of a “certain age” to remember Beany and Cecil.”
And what age would that be? I’m old and never heard of them.

Early 60s. (Works for the decade and the certain age.)
It may be a Southern California thing. The show (with puppets) aired in the 50s. I don’t know if it showed nation wide. There was an animated version later on that probably did. Cecil, the SeaSick Sea Serpent, was basically a sock with eyes, mouth and fins on top. You never got to see the tail.
