My Old Friend Mrs. Beasley

I bought one on ebay, the seller had it listed as an original 1967 doll, I got her really cheap (she doesn't talk, but it can be fixed) one of the sellers told me to make sure I didn't get the cheryl ladd version (ashton drake) I would be disappointed with the doll and the voice. I've looked at them and besides the feet, can't really see a big difference on how the dolls look. Even if this doll can't be made to talk, I just really wanted the doll, itself. My dad decided to build a fire when I was younger and "cleaned" me & my sisters bedroom, anything that was on the floor, went in the fire. I've missed her. I remember watching that show every day before I started school, I learned a lot from it as a kid & have watched a few on youtube, just type in family affair there and you can find a lot of the shows. Mrs. Beasley was always there when I needed her, my comfort, someone that held my secrets and helped me cope, while growing up in a tough situation.
