Our senators need to know that an overwhelming majority of Americans want an open Internet. We don’t want corporations blocking what we say or do online. We want every website, from biggies like Amazon and Google to sites operated by millions of small businesses and bloggers, to be treated the same, with no fast lanes for companies with deep pockets!

Black Francie

The highly prized and beautiful 1st and 2nd issue Black Francie® dolls
The 1st edition has a silky auburn color hair. The second edition has a very dark brown. Both dolls above are completely original.

Black Francie® (1967 -68) is a rare and special doll since she did not sell well when she first came out. There were two different issues of the Black Francie, though both have bendable legs and twist waists. The first edition has a dark auburn hair color. The second edition has a very dark brown hair color. The delicate and hard to find Black Francie swimsuit and eyelash brush is seen below:

Unfortunately, Mattel's Reproduction Black Francie's face paint does not look authentic.
If you would like me to repaint your repro Francie into an authentic-looking doll, please email me!
I can also re-root her hair so that it is silky-smooth like the first-issue (and use any color your heart desires). Be sure to email me for cost and more information:
