Radio Days - A Look Back

Sandra Stillwell recently put on a convention in Cincinnati, Ohio called "Radio Days." Obviously the era was the time of high popularity of radio shows. There was no actual doll featured. The fashions of the era were the stars and several different manufacturer's dolls modeled.
Unfortunately the event coincided with our move and I was not able to go. I did purchase some of the little prop souvenirs. The radio is still available on Sandra's website. 
Click on the link to read about the planning and creation of the event. Sandra also has two sales pages where you can admire and purchase the remaining fashions and several other items from past events.


I'm a sucker for props and these are a wonderful addition to my ever growing collection.

Some of my favorite fashions are seen in the photos below:
