Allan Doll Trivia

 

The Allan doll was named after Barbara Handler's, the Mattel founders daughter's real husband Allan Segal.  Only one Mattel vinyl case shows a graphic of both Barbie and Allan together, a high valued case.  The Segal's have two children Cheryl and Todd.  The Segal's divorced in the 1960s, the Allan doll disappeared from the Mattel doll line in 1966, reappearing again after 1990.
