Francie was always my favorite doll. Loved her mod fashions.

[@siwarvidsson9705]

German Francie was available with busy hands when I was a child she is one of my dolls I have as a child.....greeting from Sweden!

[@janemarie3231]

We love Bradley, he is one of the best Barbie historians

[@RachelHoffmanDolls]

Yes he is!

[@dakotatwilight]

I love this collection. Thank you Bradley and Rachel. Ilove my Francie I found in a thrift store. I also picked up a lot of Barbie clothes that had a few Francie labeled clothes and many with no labels.

[@AchsahEDavis]

That was great, very informative! I really enjoyed it, and viewing some of your collection! :)

[@dons8296]

Thank you so much for this informational video. I enjoyed it immensely. I am a decade too young to have had Francie, but have discovered her with a fervor.

[@indybeth200]

Well done! I had Malibu Francie and the "Wild Bunch" outfit. It was so fun to see them again!

[@delanceysdollhouse]

this had so much good information not alot of collectors talk about. from names of sculptors and designers at the time, i love learning these things. thank you so much for this video! very well executed and spoken.

[@rogerlloyd1897]

Ummm I watch all your videos... How did I miss this one!?!?!? Bradley is such a gem 💎 💖

[@RachelHoffmanDolls]

So glad you found this one, it’s a favorite!!

[@flowermeerkat6827]

I love Francie and I love your Francie collection!

[@raggedyann4372]

Thank you! We are having so much fun this week🥰🥰🥰

[@thepearlatelier4256]

Such pretty dolls and cool fashion.

[@patrickriccio4004]

That was a fabulous video. Learned so much.

[@AchsahEDavis]

I’d really like Bradley to do a history of the bubble cut Barbie or an identification guide

[@SisterWomen]

Barbie Tutorials are typically a little all over the place due to the volume of information but Bradley came ready and knocked it out of the park! I loved when he pulled the bodies first and put them away. Such a clever way to side step undressing the doll on film. What a presentation! I'm sure Francis Fairchild feels justified.

[@ericmoore571]

I really enjoyed that! Thank you!

[@vickinoeske1154]

This was so interesting. Can't believe I never had a Francie, she's so cute. I had a 2nd run brunette Barbie, a Ken and a Skipper.

[@RachelHoffmanDolls]

Thanks for sharing!!

[@psalm37v4]

My favorite girl! I am a huge Francie fanatic. I have almost all of them except the no-bangs (too expen$ive) and no original Japanese Exclusives (same reason as no bangs). But I still love her. I have about 50 or 60 different Francies ranging from the straight leg to Baggie Francie. I also have about 30 Caseys and 10 Twiggys. I've been a Barbie collector for over 50 years but I really got into Francie around 1995. I love her body type so much I've also done some rebodys, putting World of Love heads on Francie bodies, so she can have more friends. I could go on but I'll stop for now. Francie is the grooviest!

[@vickiromines1552]

Love it!!!

[@lipsdaz]

Today I found 1975 Baggie Francie doll in a thrift shop for $3.99. In that same thrift shop I found a Baggie 1975 Casey 2 years ago.

[@RachelHoffmanDolls]

My favorite doll. I do I’d not love Barbie. But my Francine was my love. ❤️

[@RachelHoffmanDolls]

Francie is so much fun!

[@zenamorgan1754]

Could you do an episode on the houses or play sets. Thank you

[@RachelHoffmanDolls]

We will put that on our list!

[@MrMeEMP]

I have an extremely rare Francis doll. I think it’s called “skimmy” based off of research. Looking to sell. Just cleaned out my neighbors house and they parted with it! Excited to find out more of this hobby

[@RachelHoffmanDolls]

Very cool!

[@psalm37v4]

They never made a DOLL with that name, but Francie DID have a fashion called "Swingin' Skimmy." Is that what you're referring to?

[@vanessamccreadie6429]

😍❤️💗💕🎈🤗

[@RachelHoffmanDolls]

XOXO

[@spyridoulaliatou4334]

Beautiful collection do you have a Staphie?

[@RachelHoffmanDolls]

We will find out someday! Thanks for tuning in!

[@BeckyDick-ji1sz]

I am trying to ID one of my dolls as she is a Francie but has brunette, rooted eyelashes, bendable legs BUT Blue eyes! Help please.

[@P00katube]

You mean Francine Fine?
