As shown in Entity's clips the most popular inflatable doll is the Judy doll. This doll is not only mass produced as a novelty doll but is also sold as a sex doll. ( I once received one in a bait and switch sale via a UK retailer)
This doll has a number of variants and has been produced for a very long time. Below are some pics of her.
And here is an amateur movie production of Judy. It is a little rude and has an adult rating.

Going back to this subject, there is some truth about your recollections. Though I was young at the time I recall numerous headlines of raids by the police for pornographic items sold. Below is a link about the restrictions in the UK as opposed to Europe at the time.Luiskjr wrote: ↑Thu Dec 01, 2022 7:43 pmI stand-by @Joe90 cause I travellednicvncnt wrote: ↑Tue Nov 29, 2022 2:19 pmIncorrect - inflatable latex and vinyl dolls such as the Hygiene Vital range were widely advertised in UK men's magazines from the early 1970's. They could also be readily bought in licensed sex shops at the time. You may be thinking of the 1987 Conegate trial which led to a definitive ruling that sex dolls were not obscene and could not be subject to legal prohibition. In practice, this ruling had no effect on their continued availability at the time but has been extremely helpful in protecting doll importers in recent years from renewed attempts at repression.
to and from UK on 70s and 80s. The real life of London was that sex shops were unexistent.
Paris (Pigalle) and Amsterdam (Red Lights) were flooded with sex shops and you could find everything, from prostitutes to peep-shows, illegal stuff, no limits.
UK, Soho... zero
I dont know legal laws prevailing at the time but London seemed to have a moral code of not allowing XXX marketing
In the early 1990s I use to shuttle from Rotterdam to Harwich by ferry and UK customs-police would often interrogate me if I was carrying any pornography material. They were obsessed. They didnt ask me about drugs. Specifically they looked for sexual stuff. Guess if I had an inflatable I would have been jailed.
Funny in 1980 Duddley Moore starred in a blockbuster movie "Arthur" in which a scene with an inflatable doll at a motel got viral.

*The other party doll that was really popular was Rita. In 1969, Swiss advertising agency Gerstner, Gredinger + Kutter (GGK) launched an innovative campaign for Germany’s most popular soft drink: Sinalco Kola (a cola with a “sherbet powder taste". It starred a brightly colored, life-sized blow-up party doll named Rita. With striking red hair, curly lashes, lush shapes, and a Sinalco Kola in hand, the campaign slogan boasted “Rita ist lieb,” which in English translates to “Rita is sweet.” “She will follow you everywhere: to parties, seaside holidays, or even into the bathtub. She does not smoke, does not drink, does not scold. Rita is all yours and she is not an expensive girl: she comes to you through the mail for 6,60 Deutsche Marks.” Yes, besides this colossal beauty’s presence in magazine advertisements, insert posters, TV ads, and in-store displays all over Germany, you could also have an inflatable Rita sent directly to your home for about $4 US.[
Within two years of the campaign’s launch, Rita had quickly achieved cult status and helped Sinalco garner tons of attention, but more importantly, a unique personification and lasting impression that would help separate their brand from ubiquitous competitors such as Coca-Cola. In March of 1971, several inflated Rita’s were thrown from the roof of the Rhein-Main-Halle building during a trade fair as part of a spontaneous marketing stunt. Dozens of excited Wiesbaden residents ran through the streets with their Rita dolls, continuing their celebration in local pubs and train stations. By the mid-‘70s, every hippie in Germany owned this eye-catching piece of plastic pop art, and Rita’s became very common at public gatherings: from crowd surfing at outdoor music festivals to political protests. A male counterpart to Rita was created: a macho, muscular, spandex wearing man pathetically nicknamed “The Guy,” but Rita proved that her popularity could never be matched.
Rita blow-up party dolls can still be found floating around Germany, occasionally someone will sell one on eBay. She typically goes for about 70 euros, who can score me one?*

I didn't know that the 1960th advertisement doll was named Rita. I only saw it in TV footage about 1960th pop art.
That is to say, there was a German language reggae-like song "Dolce Vita Rita" by Spider Murphy Gang, about a lonely guy buying a too cheap blowup lovedoll of that name, that disappoints by quickly going flat when he first time tries sex with it. It is in Austrian or Bavarian dialect (may be a bit hard to understand).

I have an old Youtube clip from Ken Russel's B/W movie "French Dressing" (1964) in that a mall street was decorated with lots of inflated sort-of Rita dolls. 2 guys make a fun of running into them. Finally a car crashes into a huge pile of these doll on a beach. The clip isn't online anymore. I only have a lowres excerpt from 2007.

Did anybody identify which dolls were use in that movie? At least these were a bit older than Rita and likely PVC.
