Description
I had a Mrs. Beasley and slept with her every night. She scared my (older) sister when we had to sleep together because of her "crazy smile". My Beasley was destroyed in a basement flood, and though I kept her moldy body, my sister surprised me one 1990's Christmas with a Mrs. Beasley in perfect condition. She even talks when I pull the string! Saying her original sayings: "Speak a little louder so Mrs. Beasley can hear you", "Do you want to hear a secret? I know one", "Long ago I was a little girl just like you" and "Would you like to try on my glasses? You may if you wish." There was one about a jumprope too, but alas, my new Mrs. Beasley's voicebox is now going...

I still have my Mrs. Beasley doll, her glasses are missing and she does not speak anymore. I have her on my shelf in my closet. My own children think she is scary looking. I can not part with her.

That doll gave me nightmares. It was kinda like a Steven King character. I buried it in the back of a closet and every now and then when I looked far enough into the closet to find another toy there she sat; smiling back at me like a sociopathic freak with that Lizzie Borden smile permanently stuck on her face.

My parents still have my Mrs. Beasley. They so very shrewdly put her glasses away so that they wouldn't get lost -- her hair is messy, but she has all of her clothes and her glasses. Her voicebox went out almost as soon as I got her which really bummed me out. But I carried that doll everywhere. She was one of the few dolls I ever wanted and played with.

Family Affair was one of my favorite shows, so of course I had to have a Mrs. Beasley like Buffy. She's still up in my parents' attic but her body's fallen apart.

I loved the show Family Affair, and had a Mrs Beasley doll...Wish I knew where it went.

I am the youngest of five girls, so I always got my sisters hand-me-down toys. One year my parents bought me a brand new Mrs. Beasley. I carried that damn doll around until she was so tattered. My mother final managed to pre-occupy me with something else and threw her away! Till this day my sisters and mother tease me about Mrs. Beasley. I loved her dearly and if I cannot guilt them into buying me a replacement, I will soon purchase one myself!!!!!!!!!

My daughter sold her Mrs. Beasley doll but without her glasses. I have the glasses if anyone wants them.
