February, 2017 Meeting of the Birmingham Doll Club

The February, 2017 meeting of the Birmingham Doll Club was hosted by Janet S., who gave a program on Dolly Darling Dolls by HASBRO.  These 4 1/2" dolls were produced from 1965 to 1968.  The original six dolls and their accessories were packaged in "hat boxes"and had molded hair.

Later dolls had real hair and less elaborate packaging.

Competitor doll makers came out with their own hat box dolls.

Hasbro made many other types of toys in the 1960's and is still one of the most popular toy makers today!
