It's the perfect home for my set of vintage Dawn dolls, made by Topper Toys from 1970-1972. The Dawn dolls were tiny, only 6 inches tall, and featured "real" eyelashes, groovy, glittery clothes, and lotsa makeup. My Dawn dolls came to me from teddy bear artist extraordinaire Peng Peng, who very kindly thought of me as she was de-stashing them (thanks, PP!)
(I suspect the second doll from the right is a special edition "streetwalker Dawn," or possibly "I've run away from home and become a go-go dancer" Dawn...)
Here's the standard Dawn herself, in all her spangly fuschia glory:
And here's her friend, Jessica, who's a bit less flower-child-like:
For a size comparison, here are the Dawn dolls with a mod-era Barbie. It's like a scene from that old "Land of the Giants" TV show:
of course i MUST post a comment here :) glad that streetwalker Dawn and her pal are getting along w/ the other Dawns. No cat fights? :oP
