Season's greetings from the hot place down under
by snadra＠powerup.com.au 25 Dec '01

25 Dec '01

To all those who celebrate it Merry Christmas! And season's greetings to everyone. It is so hot here we have all the airconditioners going and the fans and the fridge is very popular. For a Christmas without a doll under the tree I still did very well in the pressie department. And hot as it is, at least we don't have fires here or the storms they have had in the south of the country. I think the neighbourhood kids probably spent the day playing under the garden sprinkler in the shade. In fact, it's not a bad idea. Have a wonderful one folks and enjoy your time with family and friends. Sandra the lurker

Re: Doll Reader (was Doll News)

Interesting that you bring up Doll Reader, Pat. I have recently had experiences at shows from Doll Reader afficionados asking me why Candi wasn't advertised or written about in that magazine. They were enthralled with and bought some of the Candis I had but until seeing her at the show didn't know anything about her. I still encounter so many people who have never heard of the Candi doll, it is somewhat surprising. I would like to see Candi in Doll Reader, speaking for myself. BTW, glad to see that you are sill with us!

That's okay by me because Barbie is an institution and there's so much that can be written about that doll alone. But it is curious that a magazine about fashion doll collecting can't become its own institution. There sure are enough fashion dolls to write about especially if one includes older "original" fashion dolls like Madame Alexander's Cissy or Miss Revlons and Vogue's Jills and Jeffs. I guess "Doll Reader" is suppose to fill that need to know about other fashion dolls. Pat >>

Re: Doll News

Hi, all! Happy holidays to each & every one! Just a couple little bits of dollie news. Vicky will no longer be publishing Dolls In Print. Looks like the last issue was the Winter one. Those with subscriptions are getting pro-rated refunds. Sigh! Another good doll magazine "down the tubes"... There are some nice new 11 1/2" and 15 1/2" doll patterns out from Simplicity & Jo-Ann is having a $1.99 sale on Simplicity patterns through the end of the month, I believe. There is even a picture of Charice wearing one of the 90's outfits in the latest Simplicity catalog. Just thought you might be interested. Melissa in MD (decked in holly & dollies)

Re: 2002 Exclusive and Beth Owens (was Mandarin Chic Jades are now Sold Out)
by SuzW397026＠aol.com 23 Dec '01

I would love to give hints but don't have final counter samples yet. Either Jason or myself have changed or tweaked each sample, LOL! Here's a couple of teasers: 1. This theme has never been used for a Candi doll before and 2. What is being done with the head mold selected for use has never been done before. That's all I can say for now, LOL! As to writing Beth Owens, I can't endorse this idea. She was highly offended by another dealer, who at one time was the distributor for Candi. It was a most unpleasant event for her and I'm afraid left her with a bitter taste in her mouth towards our beloved Candi. I wouldn't want to remind her of such unpleasantness. If the time comes that she can disassociate the doll with the protagonist of this event, I'm sure she will do an article of her own accord.

Any hints as to what's in store for us in 2002? LOL. I think it's a great idea for Barbie Bazaar to cover Candi, Candi deserves a decent coverage! Boy I can't remember when the last time was that I read a good Candi article....it was back in the days of Millers with that article by Beth Owens. ON THE SUBJECT OF Beth Owens, it seems she visits the Vicky doll board as well and she did posted her email address there. She is now the fashion doll writer for Doll Reader so I took the chance to write her too about covering Candi!!! LOL can you tell I love this doll? Here is her addy in case you want to write too: BethanyOwens(a)aol.com >>

Re: Mandarin Chic Jades are now Sold Out

The Mandarin Chic Jades have sold out. I hope that all of you who got one enjoy them through the years. A BIG thank you to all who purchased one! Producing this exclusive put butterflies in my stomach but her warm reception by collectors gave me the courage to put the second exclusive doll on the drawing board, as well as to start the joint venture to co-produce the Winter Mist fashion. Jason, Katy's, Integrity and myself will continue to work to bring you dolls and fashions that will be really special additions to your collections. Thank YOU for your support!!!!
