Feb 2nd Christie

Black History Month

February  2nd

This is 1968/1969 Christie and a reproduction of her. The reproduction was a twist and turn.

Christie was the first fashion doll in modern times to be featured.  She was the black friend of Barbie .  It was groundbreaking to have a fashion doll that could be like you and that she was not a carbon copy of Barbie.  She was successful unlike Black Francie the year before.

Christie came in various hairstyles but this is the first one she wore and would not be seen with a shirt hairstyle for many years.
