Miss Suzette

What is it about this doll that makes her so expensive?  For the uninitiated, Miss Suzette is a Barbie-sized Uneeda doll, with multiple hair colors and a very pretty, very early sixties face.

Needless to say, I'd like to own one...but look at these effing prices!!!

Killecrankie, that much for a Barbie-sized doll???  It's not like Suzette is highly jointed like her Uneeda sisters Dollikin and Miss Dollikin.  I own Miss Dollikin myself; she's east to find and inexpensive.  My poor girl still needs a dress.

A redhead, of course.  So what gives?  I know the market was oversaturated with Miss Dollikin, hence why there's a glut of them on eBay and they're so inexpensive.  Is Miss Suzette rare?  Jenjoy notes that Miss Suzette was sold only at a store I've never heard of, W.T. Grant's, so I bet she is indeed rare.  I guess that for now I'm just gonna have to look at Miss Suzette and covet, as I'm having to spend my money on X-rays and a back patio.  Yep, we're putting in a small deck out back, and I can't wait to see how it looks!
