An immediate past officer and member of the UFDC Derby City Doll Club of Kentucky, Rebecca designed the club's logo. In 1988, Derby City Doll Club hosted their Region 8 Conference, "Vive les Bebes" at which time they sponsored Rebecca's first exhibit, "Welcome to Barbie-town U.S.A."; the appellation she gave her collection at the age of nine. The convention report in Doll Castle News magazine included this popular exhibit. In addition, Rebecca served as chairperson of the "Fashionable Barbie Doll Luncheon". She was editorial assistant and staff writer for "Vive les Bebes" souvenir book, as well as contributing writer of articles published by various other doll publications.

Customer Reviews

Wide but not Deep
This book has a lot of different categories and therefore none are complete. You will get a sampling of items across different areas and times, but this will not help you identify the vast majority of what you own or are looking to buy. Price guide in the back only covers those items pictured in the book. Is a good starter book, probably not for the serious collector.
