We had to do this to our exercise books at school. People used wallpaper. Top marks to the lad who used woodchip.

I can’t even guess how many hours I played with this. I absolutely loved mine.

I remember my younger sisters having these. The dolls were heavy cardboard, and the clothes were basically paper, and most of the time they had to be cut out with a scissors. They didn't last long because if the clothes got wet, they would slowly disintegrate.

Pressed out from a sheet of card, where you had to fold over the tabs to make the clothes stay on.....my how things have changed!

I'm in my 70's and me and my friends collected these as young girls. They would be on the back pages of girls comics

I still have my paper dolls from the 1960's and have found places online to buy more and now collect them.

I hated the cutting. I'd usually ask my mom, because I was too impatient to do a good job. I loved playing with the dolls, though.

I loved paper dolls and I also made my own. I once made a really pretty blue dress for one and I used my mom's nail polish to add some bling and it looked great.

I liked paper dolls better than Barbie dolls. They were easier to change outfits.

I had this exact set of paper dolls bought them from the five & ten store for 15 cents.

There was a whole online thing for these dolls for a while. Called "KISS dolls"

But NOT quitre so AY-Merry-Can cutesy. (aka saccharine).

My sister and I used to cut pictures of ladies out of the catalogues and also cut out home furniture for them as well. They were pretty flimsy, but fun.

I played with a few versions of these.

As a child in the 60s, I had tons of paper dolls and played with them for hours!

Omg I loved LOVED my paper dolls!

Cut-outs! Took a lot of patience with a scissor for not much of a payoff

loved them so much.

I was obsessed with these when I was a kid

My older sister played with those. I wasn't interested in paper; I got a mini doll instead.

I remember them being in my aunts and uncles toy closet at grandmas. I dug these, Star Wars toys weeble wobbles, and a brite lite out when they were away at college. Along with other random old toys like rock polisher and an old chemistry set you could have probably of cooked meth with.

The tabs tore off really easily

I loved playing with these "paper dolls:

I had a collection of Betsy McCall paper dolls.

I'm baffled. In Germany, we had these too, but not with actual real tobacco-brands.

Heck yeah. Awesome, and still have a ton of vintage equipment.

Many years later, I learned that the collar and the bowtie were part of the cartoonists' tricks to make animating the heads faster and easier.

Wow! I miss him!

I can hear this picture 🐮

And recording songs off the radio with my cassette player and getting ticked off when he started talking at the end of the songs. Lol

Grandma had a silver one. Wish I had it. It was freakin indestructible.

It does give the wood flavour.

How mine still looks, so ner!

Crikey, what a good guy.

Indeed! Pure bliss!

Still have my nans

Still is. At least in Germany

Do you remember when you could still BUY stuff with just the coins you had in your coin holder?

I used to love orange crème pops. I just a yogurt that was flavored orange creme and it brought me back.

And usually the telephone sat on top of the phone book….

These still exist...

I had the sort with the rubber band propeller

My mom still does this. I'm 36.

Still use it for all those!!

Mighty Mouse is on the way!

We had this exact linoleum kitchen floor until WELL into the 90s XD

Still use them ;-)

Still have mine

Also the strawberry flavor with veins of strawberry

Love big brother snuggling with younger sibling 😊

Remember? LPs are a thing again

They were 'banned' (really they just stop showing the cartoons) because they were characters created from racist tropes. Many of the characters from Looney Toons and Hanna Barbara were extremely racist and stereotypes. They weren't part of 'our culture' or 'our history' - they were blatant examples of systemic racism in the USA. And to those who said, 'They were just cartoons!' - yes, just cartoons, so why do you miss them or need them?

Yep - learned to read with D**k, Jane, and Sally

I will gladly pay you Tuesday for a hamburger today

I still have one, kept it when I cleared my mothers home.
