I'm guessing that little girl must have been an only child.

This could SO be me! Do you know that there are companies that make a perfume that smells just like Play-Doh? You can also get Jelly-Belly, Dirt, Grass, and several other interesting fragrances. So, if you want that play-doh smell, check out demeterfragrance.com! Also, looking at that wall, do you suppose that is a drop-down ironing board? Great photo, Charles! This could SO be me!

WOW, it was such a surprise to see you on TV. I went to High School with you at Chaffey in Ontario Calif. My name was Sharon Cremo. You probably don't remember me, I was no one special. My best friend (Lisa Cutshall) contacted me and gave me your Web site information. I just thought I'd tell you how wonderful I think it is that you've done something SO interesting with your life! Best wishes to you :-) Sharon Cremo - Schmall Jim Stokke?! WOW, it was such a surprise to see you on TV. I went to High School with you at Chaffey in Ontario Calif. My name was Sharon Cremo.

BTW, it's somewhat distressing to be older than some of the people on these "vintage" slides. ;) I could be wrong, but I always thought the name Play-Doh was a play on words for Plato.

Couple that with the shoe store foot xrays from a couple weeks back~we may have the answer to certain health issues today! Oh well. I still love looking at the crazy wallpaper, ironing board cupboard, formica table, big old fashioned black telephone, not to mention that cute little girl, so Brady Bunch-esque!

Play-doh stands out as one of those simple yet fun toys I never got tired of. And, like yourself, Charles, I too did some taste tests of my own! Needless to say they wound up as spit balls!! This is a cute little pic and nicely color-coordinated like you say....ummmm those turquoise little morsels look delectable!!

There was indeed perfume in Play-Doh. The factory reeked of it, and so did we by the time we left there with two--yes, two!--free cans of Play-Doh.
