No, I never heard of her before either.
These paper dolls were made by Whitman (Of course!) in 1975.
Jean Jeans loves a certain type of fabric. Can you guess what it is?!
She has a complete wardrobe which is super heavy on the,you guessed it,JEANS!
I have one more set of paper dolls from this box of them that I somehow ended up with from an auction or somewhere. I'm going to save that set for a theme week down the road. but I wanted to show you the box. I love when I get things with messages and things from the original child owners. Some of them are really funny, like the shoe box of stuff I got at a yard sale that bore the warning,'Top Secret Rocks! Do Not Open!',and some are sweet. This box commemorates the love a little girl named Sara had for a boy named Teyo, and how someone named Mimi was 'so mean' to someone named Amy.
See you tomorrow for a doll, before the girls and I go to Akron to see Squeeze,
I had the Jean Jeans paper doll! I got it in my Easter basket.
ReplyDeleteIt'd be fun to get together with you in Akron sometime. It's only about an hour from me.
You're in Cleveland, right? I keep wanting to go to the rock and Roll Hall of Fame again,so maybe someday we can meet up. Akron is about 2 hours from us.
DeleteI had another idea. Are there any doll shows near you? I am without doll shows now that the big Columbus ones are dead. Maybe we could meet at a doll show.
DeleteI had a lot of paper dolls, most of mine were perforated around the clothes. No cutting needed, but you had to be VERY careful not to tear them.
ReplyDeleteThat's the frustrating thing about paper doll stuff. (ONE of them!) They always tore and were hard to cut or tear out without ruining them.
