You unlock this door with the key of imagination.

Beyond it is another dimension, a dimension of sound, a dimension of sight, a dimension of mind.

You're moving into a land of both shadow and substance of things and ideas

you've just crossed over into the Twilight Zone.

If you were a child in 1959 America, there was a distinct possibility that you might

wake up on Christmas morning to find underneath your Christmas tree a doll called Brickette

from the Vogue Doll Company. Standing at 22 inches tall with green eyes and orange hair,

Brickette would have made scores of children happy

until she was discontinued in 1961.

Or perhaps for the child who wanted a bit more life in their doll,

the Chattie Cathy doll from Mattel was also manufactured

in 1959, but this doll had a string in its back and when you pulled it, Kathy would say

one of 11 phrases. What'd you do? Get a new doll? Oh no.

Taddy Cassie asked first.

Sure, because a dog can talk or something.

Please brush my hair.

Okay, Daddy.

Well, I told you she could talk.

I just pulled this ring and she says 11 different things.

Make her say that again.

Maybe she will.

Part of the fun is you never know what Saddy Cat will say next.
