When "HandSpeak" Systems Go Wrong (Just for fun)
The Rudette wishes to be petted and is not sure what to do.
Couldn't resist.
Goldmine is wearing a Sybarite wig and a rhinestone bra and bikini bottom from Facets.
Picture of the Week Award (March 29, 2009)
A new weekly feature on my blog is to showcase a photo from another doll collector which I think is special. Browsing on Prego, I found the following photo taken by Vicky in Hawaii. I've never seen dolls pictured taking their own photo. It's clever and so well done. The composition and lighting are excellent! The dolls are Tonner's Jac and Sean.

New Paper Doll Book from Mel Odom
Mel has been a busy guy. Members of the Integrity Gene Club got "Mel Mail" today and one of his announcements was about his new paper doll book coming out in August.
Here's the description from the manufacturer's site:
Lavishly illustrated in Jim Howard's beautifully artistic style, "Gene and her Friends" features 5 dolls and 8 pages of stylish outfits based on the popular fashion dolls created by Mel Odom. The beautiful Gene doll is joined by chic villainess Madra Lord, Gene's leading man Trent Osborn, her fashionable best friend Ivy (Vee J.) Jordan, and the sultry Violet Waters.This fabulous authorized edition will be available in August 2009. Advance orders are welcome.
There is another paper doll book by Mel on that same site.
This one was illustrated by Marilyn Henry with actual outfits belonging to Gene. Manufacturer: B. Shackman.
