Spanning manufacturers from Advance to Worlds of Wonder, this
comprehensive collector's guide covers talking toys dating from 1878
made by Thomas Edison to those of 1998. A large portion of the book
is devoted to talking dolls and animals manufactured by Mattel,

years of production of the toys. Over 350 full-color photographs
showcase these chatty playthings. Stock numbers, when available, are
included for each doll and animal, as well as values for factory
sealed, mint in box, and loose talking dolls. Pull string, battery
operated, record player toys, circuit board talkers, and cassette
toys are included -- dolls like Bozo the Clown, Sister Belle, Matty
Mattel, Casper the Ghost, and the all-time favorite Chatty Cathy.
Readers and collectors will find their lost childhood friends
throughout the pages of this nostalgic and informative book, many of
which may have been forgotten. Talking Toys of the 20th Century is
sure to bring a flood of happy memories for the child in all of us
who played with these wonderful toys.
