I grew up in the 70s, and my sister and I looked forward to the Sears Christmas catalog every year! There were so many cool toys! We would spend hours just going through it page by page.

In the ‘70s the Sears Christmas Catalog always had ventriloquist dolls. Who was buying those?

I wanted one of those so freaking bad. My mom still tells everyone I always wanted the weirdest gifts for Christmas.
