TAKARA JENNY DOLL

submitted by Pat Duncan, Baton Rouge, LA pduncan@premier.net

Galtak.jpg (14910 bytes)This doll is a Takara Jenny--a Japanese fashion doll younger and less worldly than the American Barbie. I first learned of these dolls last year when a club member presented a program about them. She had discovered them on the Internet and made friends with a California dealer who imports and sells them. Although I was smitten by the doll, I never expected to own one. However, our member persuaded her dealer friend to donate one as a raffle at our club's doll show last February. Was I surprised when I won the doll, because I never win anything! Ethnic/international dolls are one of the focuses of my collection, and I display Jenny proudly with my other Oriental dolls.
