Terrific non-TV Toys: Dawn doll beauty parlor by Topper Toys, 1970s

Every beautiful doll needs a salon to visit, and this wondrous playset from the 1970s was designed to cater to the Dawn doll's every grooming need. You've got a comfy reclined chair, a hair dryer, a sink for shampooing, a mirror to behold the progress (it works), and bottles of various potions and whatnot. It's the perfect place for Dawn, Glori, Dale and all their friends to get ready for that big party. Call this episode a follow-up to an earlier episode on Dawn dolls, those amazing 6-inch dolls by Topper Toys, a a company that released several other playsets back then. This one was snagged on eBay a few years back.

See the other episodes in the Terrific non-TV Toys series.

Also, here is a "stationary" look at the photos of other Dawn stuff that you'll see at the end of the video. The first five are by this author, snapped at various toy shows in recent years, and the rest are from eBay and other online sources ...
