I thought those doors might be for “The Walt Disney Story (etc)”, but was too lazy to do any research.<br /><br />Irene, it has been rumored that Goofy wears false eyelashes, but I think it’s just sour grapes from jealous people.<br /><br />Mike Cozart, thanks for all the additional details. Now I want to look and see how different Goofy looked two years later. I think I know what Minnie, Mickey, Donald and Pluto looked like, but maybe not?<br /><br />Jonathan, yes, Goofy was always so affable, although there was that period when he was in those “Motor Mania” type movies when he would turn into a raging monster! I did like those movies, though.<br /><br />stu29573, oh, those “backwards Goofy” watches were pretty valuable at one time, don’t know if they still are! They even released reproductions of them because of the demand.<br /><br />Melissa, it is very sweet to see how happy kids can be to see one of their beloved cartoon heroes. I was so curious to see which Goofy hat you wore, because my mom had one too, but yours is different. My mom’s looks like the green hat that Goof wears.<br /><br />dzacher, sometimes he just wants to feel pretty, there’s nothing wrong with that.<br /><br />Lou and Sue, it never occurred to me that the boy might be self-conscious of a missing tooth. I think I was always proud of a missing tooth! <br /><br />K. Martinez, I do love the “How To…” series, and while Mickey seemed to get more boring when he turned into a suburbanite, Goofy’s cartoons were still entertaining. I didn’t recall that he had a leggy wife!<br />Major Pepperidgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09843598326995116014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25922463.post-56535949845442751962020-02-23T08:01:25.871-08:002020-02-23T08:01:25.871-08:00Love the Goof.

Our young friend on the right is attempting to 'work' "a look" that never caught on. (In the good news department... she'll be thrilled to know that in the not-to-distant future, early sightings of the "cold shoulder" will begin to make the scene. Too bad that hasn't yet passed).<br /><br />Thanks, Major.Nanookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07255357829181568172noreply@blogger.com
