Chatty Cathy ( C spelling used) was a classic series of toys made by Mattel, Inc commencing in the early sixties. the unique feature was the chatty-ring on the side of the doll ( or stuffed animal)- the concept was expanded to stuffed animals such as Bugs Bunny, which this author had, and Mr. Ed ( puppet form) one pulled the chatty ring and let go- there was a random order of phrases. From what I understand, and true to type- what with Catherine II (The Great) there was a Russian-speaking version of Chatty Cathy ( girl doll) made with interchangeable tapes. Obviously she had Russian togs as well- the familiar Russian hat, possibly a muff, and boots, etc. I have not seen a Russkie Chatty Cathy but think it was a good idea in those turbulent times- why can"t we have a nice, friendly Russian doll?
