1965-1966 Hasbro Dolly Darling

1965-1966 Hasbro Dolly Darlings - Hatbox Series

Dolly Darlings - Hat box Series - The Hasbro Dolly Darlings dolls all have molded hair are 4 1/2" tall and were the first dolls in this series. They were packaged in a plastic hatbox case with a clear front cover. Each came with an assortment of tiny accessories that complimented the dolls character. These dolls have painted facial features and the distinctive "ballerina" like hands. Clothing can be removed, but is very difficult to get back on again due to the wide arms that rotate, but do not bend. John and his pets has the dubious distinction of being the only male doll created in the Dolly Darlings series and was not recreated in any of the subsequent rooted hair doll series, as the rest of these dolls were, but with new names. Marked on their back: ©1965/Hasbro/Hong Kong or Japan.
