I quite like this design, seen a few others with different coloured trailing. Not completely sure about the date of these, although I think roughly mid 70s. Sure Sue or John can confirm the date.

Thanks again Greg, thought the colour was interesting not seen a lot in this colour, doesn't appear to be cased the trailing is on the inside, a trail of burst bubbles  one that appears to have burst in the making the bits are smooth to the touch and one that looks like it's burst later.
