Topper Toys introduced Dawn dolls in 1970. The first dolls released were Dawn (blonde doll and the namesake to the line) and her friends Angie (black hair) Gloria (red hair) and Dale (black hair and African American). All the dolls were just over 6" in height. The initial line included 44 lovely outfits, packaged the same way that Barbie outfits had been packaged in the 1960s--sewn to a card so that each piece of the outfit could be seen at once. Besides outfits, play sets produced included Dawn cars, fashion stages, sofa-and-phone sets, apartment furniture, beauty parlors and more. Outfts included long, luxurious gowns and short, sassy mini dresses.The second wave of Dawn dolls included three male dolls (Gary, Ron and Van) plus Jessica (short blonde hair) and Longlocks (VERY long brown hair). "Dancing" dolls were also released--this version of the dolls allowed you to move the arm and have the head and waist "twist" so the dolls appeared to dance. The "Dance Party" gift set included Kevin and Fancy Feet, two characters not sold separately.Another version of the dolls were the "Head to Toe" dolls which came with short hair and three wigs. Dawn, Angie and Longlocks were available as "Head to Toe" dolls. These dolls seem to have been inspired by the Crissy line of dolls with hair that "grew" from the top of their head that were very popular during the early 1970s. A slightly odd version of the dolls are the "Flower Fantasy" dolls. these dolls included the dolls standing in the middle of a plastic flower pot. They weren't produced in great numbers, so mint-in-box Flower Fantasy dolls are highly sought-after by collectors today.Finally, the last release of the dolls were the "Model Agency" and "Majorette" lines in 1972. The Model Agency line included Dinah, Denise, Melanie, Daphne and Maureen. The Majorette line introduced Connie, April and Kip. The Majorette dolls could spin a small baton that glowed in the dark.**
