Growing up I knew who Bozo and Mrs Beasley were but I can honestly remember having no clue what a Flip Wilson was when I saw one of his gender bending dolls on clearance.
I had to ask my Mom, who smiled and said "Oh he was funny!" which really didn't answer the question....

I had a friend who had the Flip Wilson doll. It was kinda creepy, like a woman was growing out of his back. Devil made me do it, indeed!
