Yesterday I told you about my friend Connie. From time to time we will be seeing some dolls from her collection. Today's is this Little Miss Dollikin.
Dollikin was a name given to a series of articulated dolls made by Uneeda, that originated in 1958 as a 19" doll that looked very much like Miss Revlon. (You may have seen a couple of my Dollikins HERE and HERE.) There were smaller ones made over the years, including a Barbie sized one, beginning in 1969. (You can see my post on mine HERE.) Today's Dollikin was produced during the Dawn era,from the late 60's to the early 70's as a competitor for the Dawn doll .

| That stubborn hair! "There was a little girl who had a little curl,right in the middle of her forehead.And when she was good she was very,very good. And when she was bad she was horrid." |
As such, she stands 6 1/2" tall.
 |
| Ha! I got the hair to lay down! |
She's jointed almost like the bigger girls, with joints at the neck, shoulders, elbows, waist,hips, and knees.
Unlike the larger Dollikins,she doesn't have joints at the wrists or ankles.

| Sorry about the blurry picture. It was cold out there! I was going to take more inside, but then my camera battery died. |
There was a version of this doll sold as Triki Miki,wearing a floral outfit in the same style,and sold exclusively at Woolworth's.

| If you ask me, she has the Crazy Eyes. |
