Oh yes, my mom always gave me the page to cut out. I looked for it every time she got McCall's mag in the mail. I loved paper dolls. Designed my own dolls and clothes too.

Check out this link: http://tpettit.best.vwh.net/dolls/pd...ge_format.html You can print the doll pages from the magazines!! Anita |
Thanks for the memories...if I ever have grand-daughters I will have to make copies for them to play with!

I remember Betsy, and I also had the Lennon Sisters paper dolls!
|
I do remember that page of paperdolls. They were really cute.
|
I had shoe boxes full of paper dolls. Oh...those were the days!!!
|
I too, had a huge box of paper dolls. I could play with them for hours although I really enjoyed just sitting on my bed and cutting out all the clothes. Once my younger sis got mad at me and took a couple of my favorites and 'drowned' them in the bathroom sink. Mom rescued them and dried them out. Wish I still had them all but I think in one of our later family moves, they might have somehow got tossed out as not necessary. I do remember when they quit putting Betsy in the magazine, too. Gone are the days.. :-(

I remember playing with Betsy McCall paper dolls for hours and hours. The website brought a smile to my face bringing back the memories. I didn't have to sit through the perm each fall, my hair was so curly my mother could hardly get a brush and comb through it!

Yes, I loved them too!
