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!

<< I think you're right about the magazine just sticking to Barbie. 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 >>
