Singing, Crying Doll


With the help of a 9-volt battery in the doll's back to activate a torso of electronics, this doll had - what at the time were - some definite next gen abilities. 

With the flick of a switch also in the doll's back, she would cry noisily, shrilly and incessantly. The only way to quieten her was to provide her with the specially-designed dummy which paused the crying noise.  

A genuine crying doll who was quietened by her dummy. Truly amazing! And instant favourite with kids. 

But wait. There was more. 

There were also 3 tiny, mini-records that you could put in the doll's back, with different songs on them. 

The mini-records have long since gone AWOL. And I think the dummy has gone missing too. Which is why there are no batteries in the doll's vicinity. 

But the doll otherwise is in great condition, and conjures up some lovely memories.
