FHD Description:
"
An Olympic queen.  A ballerina on ice who captured the heart of America.  Now she has authorized the creation of a poseable collector doll.  Her features sculpted true to life in fine imported bisque porcelain; her blue eyes hand-painted.  Dressed in a dazzling skating costume of organza over white chiffon - hand-sewn with faux pearls & sequins with the graceful "handkerchief" skirt of a supreme performer.  Genuine maribou & sequins adorn her hairpiece.  Specially jointed shoulders and hips so she can form a variety of poses - a feature rarely found in collector dolls.  A legend on ice."
