Bobbed California Dream Midge with that dreamy Steffi face.

Wearing Twice as Nice 4825

Found this doll head at Goodwill in the US for a few dollars. She had a haircut but I was able to neaten it up a bit. I think she looks cute with a bob.

PART 2

I scoured the internet, translated old Japanese websites, and pieced together the story of Gina Garan, Junko Wong, and original Allison Katzman designer behind Blythe. From the original 1972 Kenner release to the Japanese revival that turned Blythe into a worldwide collector phenomenon, this mini documentary is a love letter to the dolls and the people who brought them back to life.

For a full-length documentary, follow to support the project.
