Friends Who Talk Back, or Walk Back...

Walking and Talking Dolls by Mattel reached a highpoint in 1962, as evidenced by this full page, over-sized magazine advert (carefully edited into sections here for you since the whole thing won't fit on my scanner.) I really like that Chester O'Chimp doll and would give anything to hear him say things in his banana scented brogue! And I'm blown away that they actually made a talking Mr. Ed puppet, I never even knew it existed until now! Ummm, who wants to see shy lil Shrinkin Violet bat her eyes, or hear Tatters the woeful waif pleading to sleep with you? *raises hand
