She came in the mail in an unusually large box and was much bigger than I expected! I’m not unboxing this one until I have a safe place to display her. I have an orange kitten who loves chaos and distruction soooo…I need to get my Doll Palace (spare bedroom lol) cleaned out and furnished.
Here is Franklin Mint’s take on Jacqueline Onassis Kennedy, first lady and Fashion Icon!
And I got a really good deal on this doll because…
A discoloured box! Good thing that doesn’t bother me personally. She’s coming out of the box anyhow.
There is also an Elizabeth Taylor I’d love to have. I’ve made an embarrasingly long wishlist of these dolls. Some of the women and female characters (Jackie, Liz, Scarlett O’hara and so on) come in many different variations. It kind of made my brain itch trying to keep up with them. There are also sold seperately outfits so you don’t need to buy every single doll to have different clothing. Jackie O has a lot. I think every outfit is one she actually wore at some point. There are tons available on ebay, some affordable and others a little less so. I’m not the type to change a Collector grade doll’s original outfit often, if ever. Even so, I still want them!
I have a huge backlog of photos (going back a couple months!) to post, but I’m exhausted. I don’t even know where to start with those but I’ll try to post them soon. Nap time! ✌️
