I stumbled across a website that had pictures of many Sears catalogs and found this beautifully groovy orange pantsuit in the Spring/Summer 1977 edition. I had the vest, the pants and even the flowered shirt. I wore the whole ensemble for my sixth-grade picture. I didn't remember so many flowers embroidered on the pants leg, but it was the '70s. I was stylin'.
I also found this Fisher-Price schoolhouse ad that Santa brought me in first grade. This was in the 1972 Wishbook.
This more enticing ad was in the 1971 Wishbook. And then I found lots of toys I wanted that Santa never delivered, like the big Barbie head that you could do her hair and make-up.
That's my dollhouse, or one very similar to it, at the bottom left of this page in the 1972 Sears Wishbook.
