Claim 5

A combination as stated in claim 3 wherein said air pump is actuated by collapsing said second simulated handset.

Claim 6

A combination as stated in claim 4 including conduit means connecting said second simulated handset to said first simulated handset for transmitting air under pressure to said air bellows.

Claim 7

A combination as stated in claim 5 wherein said figure toy includes a hand in which said bellows is located and wherein said first simulated handset is connected to said hand in fluid communication with said bellows.

Claim 8

A combination as stated in claim 6 wherein said sound producing device is a battery-operated phonograph and said switch means is connected to said phonograph by an overriding electrical circuit.

Claim 9

A telephone-talking figure toy simulator comprising: a figure toy having a phonograph device incorporated Therein; switch means on said figure toy for energizing said phonograph device, said switch means including a first simulated telephone handset; a second simulated telephone handset including means for actuating said switch means; and means connecting said switch actuating means on said second handset to said switch means on said first handset, whereby said phonograph device may be actuated from a location spaced from said figure toy by a user of said second handset in simulation of a telephone call from said user to said figure toy.

Claim 10

A telephone-talking figure toy simulator comprising: a figure toy having a phonograph device incorporated Therein; switch means on said figure toy for energizing said phonograph device, said switch means including a first simulated telephone handset; a second simulated telephone handset including means for actuating said switch means; and means connecting said switch actuating means on said second handset to said switch means on said first handset, whereby said phonograph device may be actuated from a location spaced from said figure toy by a user of said second handset in simulation of a telephone call from said user to said figure toy.

Claim 11

A telephone-talking figure toy simulator as stated in claim 8 wherein said switch means includes a movable element and an air-expandable bellows connected to said movable element and wherein said second simulated handset comprises an air pump for supplying air under pressure to said bellows.

Claim 12

A telephone-talking doll simulator comprising: a doll having at least one hand and an electric phonograph device incorporated in said doll; switch means in said at least one hand for energizing said phonograph device; a first simulated telephone handset; means connecting said first handset to said switch means; a second simulated telephone handset including means for actuating said switch means; and means connecting said second handset to said first handset, whereby said phonograph device may be actuated from a location spaced from said doll by a user of said second handset in simulation of a telephone call from said user to said doll.

Claim 13

A telephone-talking doll simulator comprising: a doll having at least one hand and an electric phonograph device incorporated in said doll; switch means in said at least one hand for energizing said phonograph device; a first simulated telephone handset; means connecting said first handset to said switch means; a second simulated telephone handset including means for actuating said switch means; and means connecting said second handset to said first handset, whereby said phonograph device may be actuated from a location spaced from said doll by a user of said second handset in simulation of a telephone call from said user to said doll.

Claim 14

A telephone-talking doll simulator, comprising: a doll having an arm and a hand; a phonograph mounted in said doll; switch means mounted in said arm; electrical leads connecting said switch means to said phonograph; a movable switch-closing device mounted in said hand for closing said switch means; a first simulated telephone hand set mounted in said hand; a second simulated telephone handset including means for moving said switch-closing device; and means connecting said second handset to said first handset, whereby said phonograph may be actuated from a remote location by a user of said second handset in simulation of a telephone call from said user to said doll.

Claim 15

A telephone-talking doll simulator, comprising: a doll having an arm and a hand; a phonograph mounted in said doll; switch means mounted in said arm; electrical leads connecting said switch means to said phonograph; a movable switch-closing device mounted in said hand for closing said switch means; a first simulated telephone hand set mounted in said hand; a second simulated telephone handset including means for moving said switch-closing device; and means connecting said second handset to said first handset, whereby said phonograph may be actuated from a remote location by a user of said second handset in simulation of a telephone call from said user to said doll.

Claim 16

In combination with a doll having a hand, an arm and an electrical phonograph, a simulated telephone system, comprising: an electrical switch mounted in said arm, said switch having a fixed contact and a movable contact; electrical leads connecting said contacts to said phonograph for energizing said phonograph when said contacts are closed; an air bellows mounted in said hand adjacent said movable contact for moving said movable contact into engagement with said fixed contact when said bellows is expanded; a first simulated telephone handset mounted in said hand in fluid communication with said bellows; a second simulated telephone handset adapted for use by a child-user of said simulated telephone system, said second simulated handset being a collapsible air pump having an air outlet through which air under pressure may pass when said child-user squeezes said second handset; and conduit means connecting said air outlet on said second handset to said first handset in fluid communication with said bellows, whereby said phonograph may be energized by squeezing said second handset to simulate a telephone call from said child-user to said doll.

Claim 17

In combination with a doll having a hand, an arm and an electrical phonograph, a simulated telephone system, comprising: an electrical switch mounted in said arm, said switch having a fixed contact and a movable contact; electrical leads connecting said contacts to said phonograph for energizing said phonograph when said contacts are closed; an air bellows mounted in said hand adjacent said movable contact for moving said movable contact into engagement with said fixed contact when said bellows is expanded; a first simulated telephone handset mounted in said hand in fluid communication with said bellows; a second simulated telephone handset adapted for use by a child-user of said simulated telephone system, said second simulated handset being a collapsible air pump having an air outlet through which air under pressure may pass when said child-user squeezes said second handset; and conduit means connecting said air outlet on said second handset to said first handset in fluid communication with said bellows, whereby said phonograph may be energized by squeezing said second handset to simulate a telephone call from said child-user to said doll.
