Description
"Heartless" Madra Doll produced by The Ashton-Drake Galleries as part of the Gene Marshall Collection. Gene is a collectible fashion doll inspired by the Golden Age of Hollywood. Created by Mel Odom, she debuted in 1995 and was one of the first large fashion dolls targeted towards adult collectors. The Gene line was produced by Ashton-Drake from 1995-2005, then by Integrity Toys from 2006-2010. Madra was introduced to the doll line in 2000. As part of the Gene Marshall Collection, the Madra dolls feature collector-quality vinyl with a finish that mimics fine porcelain. The dolls have hand-painted features, hand-applied lashes, and period coiffures rooted and styled by hand. The wardrobe is crafted of quality fabrics with impeccable tailoring details, with vintage accessories designed precisely to scale. This Madra doll was released in 2000. Comes with stand, pictured outfit and accessories. Measures approximately 15.75" tall. Good condition.
