Star Sightings Eaton's Toys

Hi Lad
 
My Mom was a part time Eaton's employee for many years.  At Christmas time she worked selling Dolls in the toy Dept.  On year when there was a PATTI PAGE DOLL,  Patti Page herself came to the store and my Mom spent the day with her.  There was also a Marilyn Bell Doll, She was the girl who swam across Lake Ont.

  2. Hi Carolyn
    My big sister is Glo. I don"t remember these dolls
    , but every summer my mom would give me a toni home permanent.  I hated it
    . My sister has a picture of me with my teeth missing and curley fuzzy hair. I
    guess that will be my look when I grow older.
