Hey Farm Girls!!!
I just love those paper dolls in Mary's magazine. Another great and extremely inexpensive place to buy great paperdolls is at www.dover.com. THis should be the address--if not go to google and type in DOver publications paper dolls. THey have hundreds to cut out or in sticker books.
Take me right back to my childhood--my 7 year old niece loves them also.

I'm another magazine addict too, and miss Victoria. I can finally subscribe to alot thanks to Publishers Clearing house and since the internet boom many subs are SO cheap, cheaper to subscribe. I love Country Side, Cottage Living, Country Living Gardener, Country Gardens, Backwood home and Back Home. Just to name a few. I will have to check into the UK Country Living, sounds like a must. I do get Mother Earth News, but havent' been thrilled with it for many years, it's not just the same anymore. The only reason I bought the last Country Home was because Mary Jane was featured! LOL
I'm not 40 something, I'm 39.95 plus shipping and handling! |

| I was at Fleet Farm today and spotted a magazine I haven't seen before. It's called Hobby Farms. It looked interesting, but at $4.99 an issue I couldn't buy it. I did take a subscription card though. I also like Country Woman. That one I can get from the library. |

Randi, I am an oldster so I remember the Betsy dolls, would hack up my Mom's magazines to get to them. Invariably in my zeal I would lopp off Betsy's toes or hands.

I remember Betsy, too, guys. I loved seeing what she was up to every month. Luckily, my granddaughter also loves paper dolls so I get to get them for her.
Happy Wishes! |

I got Mary Englebright from the first issue until last year when I quit my subscription. She got to full of advertising and when her covers changed from her own style to the more upscale better homes and gardens style I guess I just got disappointed. Still love the paper dolls.

Would anybody who gets the Brit Country Living care to trade past issues? I could trade Snackeesacks, fabric, readings, etc. Thanks!
