Wow...I was surprised to see this ad...because only a few days ago my mother and I were discussing Totie Fields. I remember seeing her on talk shows when I was a kid. I also remember hearing about her losing a leg before she died. I think she had diabetes but I could be wrong. Anyway, I remember these old ads and remember those pantyhose too.

Cindi-
Yep, Totie did have to have one of her legs amputated but it was due to an inoperable blood clot. You can read moe about it here.

I totally remember seeing packages of these pantyhose at the drugstore (AKA "The pharmacy"). The image of those 3 portly women in choo choo train formation on the front will forever haunt me. LOL! R.I.P. Totie.
