There is actually two versions of the Chatty Cathy doll, the orginal from the 50's and the one you remember from the 60's, I had her as well. She is known to the doll collecting world as Charming Chatty. The one from the 50's had curly hair and a pastel dress while the one from the sixties had straight (usually red) her, freckles, and a sailor outfit.

	I had a Chatty Cathy doll but I got her in the mid-60's so she's a little

	late for the 50's.  Raggedy Ann and Andy would be good though.  Has anybody

	mentioned BB guns?
