For vintage day. Exciting finds

Posted by Kathy M. in CO on 9/11/2025, 8:14 am

I have been looking for the right bend leg Midge for quite a while I have my childhood one, but she is a transitional with the old flip hairstyle on a bend leg body. I have the pix to prove it too!, but I have wanted a short hair one too. Spotted this lady in an local ( well about an hour away ) auction and was thrilled to snag her for $35. Bought three other lots and the total was about 145, and yes you see it the lovely Midnight Blue is there. It's in incredible condition, just needs a light pressing and it will be pristine. I have no idea how the Francie Quick Shift or the Nighty got there as there were no Francie's in the lots. Some Skippers I passed on and a bubble that brought more than I wanted to pay. Included in my stuff was also a case with a FQ head and wigs and some more misc. accessories including some shoes and gloves etc. Midge just needs her hair tamed a bit and one leg is slighty swingy, but she doesn't even have holes in her ears. I don't think she was played with much.

Loot

Paint me happy!
