Glitter 'n Gold Rio - Jem
The past few weeks have been slow finding doll treasures, but today made up for it.
At the Flea Market, I walked up to a table to find so many dolls that I wanted. I hate to pick and choose. I asked the woman how much were the dolls. When she gave me the price, I was able to buy every boxed doll I found. I asked her if she had any others, she replied that they only found these so far but haven't even been up to the attic yet. Guess who is going back to the Flea Market next week

Doll head and outfit Made in China,
Others (?) Made in Hong Kong
The box was taped, so I opened it to see if all the accessories were there because I couldn't see
them through the plastic. Everything was intact.
