LEGGY STORY |
One of my newest acqusitions is a wonderful miniature 18-page promotional Brochure called "Leggy' Story. This brochure, printed on the same type of paper that paperback books are made from, appeared as an insert in various kid-oriented magazines in Italy during the mid 70s. I am going to put the pictures up now, and as I have time, I will fill in some of the translation (as the booklet is entirely in Italian). The booklet gives nicknames, personalities and other traits to the four dolls and follows their adventures: more to come later!! |
The cover is called Leggy Story: The incredible lives of four incredible girls. The next page tells a short biography on each doll: Jill: nickname is the new blonde. Sheis an American born in Denver, living in Santa Monica California. She is a student, with the distinguishing features of long blonde hair, long legs and big eyes. She loves horses, sleeping late and cooking. Nan: nickname is the seagull. She is Italian and lives on a boat in the sea. She is a geographic photographer who is tall, with sweet eyes and very pretty. Kate: nickname is the red wind. She is Irish but lives in London. She is an actress (with question marks next to this, so poor Kate must not be a very good actress). She has red curled hair, splendid eyes and long long legs. She loves motorcycles. Sue: nickname the black antelope. She is from New Orleans and is a singer and ballerina. She is elegant, sweet and pretty, and likes to sing diverse songs.. |
