Joan Crawford: “Mommy Dearest” Movie Collectible Set /2013 14025 – (NRFB) #2
NEVER REMOVED FROM BOX. In 2013, Integrity produced the licensed collectible Hollywood movie doll gift set of Joan Crawford as depicted in the questionably accurate and rather unflattering 1981 psycho-scary pseudo-biographical film of Hollywood heyday film actress Joan Crawford, starring Faye Dunaway in the title role. This gift set features:
- DOLL BODY – This set features two heads to be used with a single doll body similar in proportion to the Monogram/Victoire Roux lines (same height as Dynamite Girls and Poppy Parker, but with larger bust). The body comes with a special “quick switch” neck peg allowing the head to be pulled off and replaced with the other head included in the set. (NOTE: The “quick switch” neck peg on this doll body is smaller in circumference than the standard Integrity doll neck peg, and the head on this doll has a corresponding smaller neck hole to fit this unique neck peg. Therefore this head and body may not be interchangeable with other Integrity dolls unless they have a similar type quick-switch neck peg and compatible size neck hole.)
- DOLL HEADS – The two heads included in this set are intended to portray specific scenes in the movie – one where Ms. Crawford is dressed for the public with her short dark blonde hair styled in a modified French twist with side curls, and the other with her hair down in loose curls, held back with a headband to keep it out of her white face representing a cold-cream mask (a customary beauty treatment of the day). (NOTE: The tip of her nose has a bit of white paint rubbed off but can easily be corrected with a dab of craft or artist paint.)
- CLOTHING – For her dressing room scene, Ms. Crawford has a navy sateen robe and matching leatherette high heel house shoes. For her in-public scene, she wears large “diamond” stud metal post earring, a fur headband (popular at the time), a dark gray lined Trico jacket and skirt, nude pantyhose, and black patent pumps.
- ACCESSORIES – Included is a Lucite base telescoping doll stand with interchangeable support (saddle or arm bracket). Also included is the movie-critical wire clothes hanger – used not only for the closet, but apparently also controversially for home discipline of children.
- PACKAGING – The clear window-front box is designed for display, with printed references to the movie. This box has some dings in the plastic and other minor wear but is good shape structurally and would suffice for display.
- SHIPPING – The retail display box comes wrapped in a protective plastic sleeve inside the original factory shipper (which has seen better days).
While this doll only vaguely resembles Ms. Crawford or Ms. Dunaway, she’s an interesting edition with finely tailored vintage-style clothing, and is a licensed collectible that would be worthy of inclusion in any collection.
