Aurora Bath Tissue commercial produced by Jim Henson in 1966.

(1965-1966) Frank Oz puppeteers a glove hand ballerina in this ad, gliding across unrolling toilet paper, while a female voice-over discusses the disadvantages of different brands, as opposed to light Aurora.

The glove puppet was demonstrated in The Muppets on Puppets special in 1968. The commercial in its entirety also aired within The Mike Douglas Show in 1966, not as an interruption, but as an example of Jim Henson's commercial creativity.
