It has a milk bar for kids and we could sit there and have a chocolate milk in an Elsie the cow mug. Come to find out I found a video on line that actually showed the milk bar !! Oh yes those Christmas windows I do remember them with the Madame Alexander dolls in them !!Nanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15210269243259892285noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2940621797132280783.post-79050310745376852802010-11-03T23:57:39.282-04:002010-11-03T23:57:39.282-04:00I remember Marshall Fields in Chicago too.

I had an older cousin who would drive take me with her to the big city to the "mall". We would walk through the entire mall, looking in every store..then back track to where she wanted to shop (I was too young and really was along for company). Those were special memories.

I loved going to the mall for all these cool stores that they haven't even heard of here! O'neil's was 3 stories too, right in the middle, when you came in the front entrance it was straight ahead at the end of the mall. It had an external glass elevator! That was so cool.<br />Love your Marionette! My dad brought my brother and I one back from Brazil one year when he did a business trio there. They are the most fun!<br />Hugs- TeteTetehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06697150195734655635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2940621797132280783.post-54819752561437343452010-11-03T14:05:51.492-04:002010-11-03T14:05:51.492-04:00My grandparents brought me one back from their tri...My grandparents brought me one back from their trip to Mexico. I was 5..and insisted I could take it to show and tell at nursery school. I remember the lectures of be careful with the puppet..don't let anyone else play with it..it could tangle up the cords..somehow I don't remember a talk about not swinging it around and slamming it into a brick wall..well they should of covered all the angles!!lol yes I was a ring tail tooter. Toys didn't last long with me..it is so neat to see you still have yours!!Thanks for sharing..ps..I know now to play careful with them!!<br /><br />Hugs Cindy from Rick-Rack and GinghamCindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02605869260096318108noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2940621797132280783.post-34358365796173001602010-11-03T13:55:35.925-04:002010-11-03T13:55:35.925-04:00LOL..what a fun post!!

Firstly, I love your sweet Marionette and your story of torturing your loved ones with shows.<br /><br />Even though we were city kids, shopping wasn't a recreational thing like it is today. It was a HUGE deal to go downtown to the department stores. And always at Christmas (which didn't start until the day AFTER Thanksgiving when the parade was) we went to see the decorations. I remember my mother's cousin was an elevator operator at one of the large department stores, lol.<br /><br />Blessings!<br />GailAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09253567615198041943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2940621797132280783.post-87467679287961039952010-11-03T13:51:54.718-04:002010-11-03T13:51:54.718-04:00Hi Nan!

I've never been to anything like that. The picture of your sisters and you with your marionette, is so precious. I can remember our Blue Bird troop going to see a show at the Bob Baker Marionette Theater in Downtown Los Angeles. Thanks for the sweet memories. <br /><br />Happy Rednesday,<br />SallySally Annie Magundyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16150258920599400128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2940621797132280783.post-58663977713699261572010-11-03T13:48:06.629-04:002010-11-03T13:48:06.629-04:00What a sweet and nostalgic post.

I think it's so great that you still have your clown marionette. I love that picture of you as a child, putting on a show in the kitchen. But all I keep thinking is that I wish I could get a better look at that tablecloth!<br />Happy REDnesday!<br />Carol★Carol★https://www.blogger.com/profile/18048131510779563893noreply@blogger.com
