From my great aunt's estate is this vintage Mattel 1960s 19" Chatty Cathy doll. Chatty Cathy is in overall good condition and marked on her lower back with the square patent pending mark (see picture).
She has blue eyes and the early freckle pattern across her nose and cheeks and red-blonde short hair. Her eyebrows and freckles are gray, her face and body are tan (which I believe was characteristic of the first doll) and she has her two front teeth. Her body is in fairly good condition, though her arms appear lighter and she has a split in one shoulder. She could also use a good cleaning. Her voice box is covered in soft material and while it pulls, the sound it makes is more of a garbled screech sound.
Her outfit is a recreation sewn by my late aunt, who loved sewing for her dolls. It consists of a pink and white striped dress similar to the original with a white scalloped eyelet over jacket that snaps in the back. She wears soft white knit white underwear with stretched waist, white socks and newer white Mary Jane shoes.
